I have a lot of text on the page and want to break it up and just have about 4 headings, which you click on and the appropiate text drops down and then ascends too.
What can I use in coffee cup to do this?

Cheers,
Stacey

I see you are using VSD. Wouldn't it be possible to make the effect you want as mouseovers?

I recently incorporated something like this into a site (still under construction). I picked up the snippet of code from Stu Nicholls...it is called "more or less"
See the example of my work here at the bottom of each of the 4 columns where it says "prosegue":

and here is an example on Stu's web site:

He has others similar to this which can be adapted.

Expanding divs.

I made a VSD example using only VSD, two columns, with some (clever? ) page switching. It takes 4 pages to accomplish this. Watch it here: http://www.johnvanhulst.com/exp-col/index.html The VSD design can be downloaded there too.

Have fun, John

John...cute workaround for VSD!

Thank you!

Nice job John. Maybe you missed your calling as a magician.

Very cool John!

One question though, is there a way to expand both sides (individually) at the same time? I noticed that if one side is expanded, and you click on the other side "expand" it automatically collapses the first... Just a thought.

That would only be possible if I created another (a new) page with both text boxes expanded, and a separate link for this page on all other pages (with a 'back' link to the front page). I could variate this design endlessly, like horizontal expanding (not very useful), vertical expanding while the text boxes are placed below each other, a top menu that switches to pages that can be vertically expanded, your imagination is the limit. A year ago (or something) I made a design that combines a top menu and a left menu which uses the same page switching technique. See it here: http://www.johnvanhulst.com/probike/index.html

And thanks for the compliment...
