Mario, et all,

Managed to answer my own question,

What I described can be accomplished by adding the following line in between the first if statment and the first return false (line 11 above):

$(‘#accordion ul:visible’).slideUp(‘normal’);

Thanks, I hope this can help!

Mario,

Thank you for the simple, yet effective script!

Is there a way to make the subordinate ul retract when the link is clicked again, not just when another sub-menu is opened?

Thanks!

Excellent explanation, I am applying to my job, now a question: Is it possible to open the section that is active?

I put javascript at the bottom of the page so that the browser loads HTML & CSS first and at last the javascript.

This way the user is abble to see all the page content and not wait for the Javascript to load.

Hi, wondering why you did this: “I add all javascript at the bottom of the page right after the tag due to accessibility and usability purposes.”

Can you please explain the reasoning behind this.

Thanks,
Dave

This isn’t working in IE8. What am I doing wrong here?

When I click a link (href=”#”) it reloads the page and puts a ‘#’ at the end of the url. So I took that attribute of so it looks like this: Text Here and it still does nothing in IE…

Hi,

I am trying to set up your accordion at the Default WP theme, but so far no success. HTML and CSS are ok, So I think I’m putting or calling the jquery code wrongly. Could you gimme an example how to do it in the hearder.php file?

Thanks!

Sure, so far I don’t see any reason why it shouldn’t work in WordPress, Joomla or any other CMS.
Give me a link so I can check it out.
