+ and – expanding tree help…

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 23.2003

im trying to make something where theres a + “some text”
and when you click on it, the + becomes a minus(but the text stays) and a block of more text and stuff appears

then, when the – is clicked, i want it to restore its former propertis(aka “+ ‘some text'”)

this would simulate an expanding tree element-like thingy

i tried to use a series of javascripts such as

<script type=”text/javascript”>
function show(txt) {
obj = document.getElementById(txt);
obj.style.display == “block” ? obj.style.display = “none” : obj.style.display = “block”; // {
}
</script>

and using different combinations of em together onClick, but it just aint workin…

any suggestions?

@skriptorJul 23.2003 — Hi,

try something like this:

<html><head>

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">

function show(txt) {

obj = document.getElementById(txt);

aTag = document.getElementById(txt + "a");

if ( obj.style.display == "block" ) {

obj.style.display = "none"

aTag.firstChild.nodeValue = "+";

} else {

obj.style.display = "block"; // {

aTag.firstChild.nodeValue = "-";

}

}

</script></head><body>

hello <a id="helloa" href="javascript:show('hello')">-</a>

<div id="hello" style="display:block">world</div>

</body></html>

Good luck, skriptor
