Re: Spry Accordian Panels

Hi.  I used Spry Accordian Panels in a new website I created using Dreamweaver CS6.  Most people can see and click the panel to open it and see the content in it.  However, I know someone that's blind that would like to use the site but is having a lot of trouble with it.  The panel tabs are not links so it doesn't tell him to click it.  I've tried putting the tabindex attribute on each panel tab and the aria-polite:polite but it hasn't helped.  Any ideas?

  • How to apply different styles to multiple spry accordian panels?

    Hi all,
    I have a website that I'm building that has multiple spry accordian features on it.
    I am trying to apply different styles to each accordian. A problem arises when I try to place an accordian within another accordian.
    I have styled two different background images for two of the accordians for the styles (AccordionPanelTab, AccordionPanelTabHover and AccordionPanelOpen AccordionPanelTabHover) which work fine.
    When I try and place an accordian within another accordian the background image for this accordian for the styles (AccordionPanelTab and AccordionPanelOpen AccordionPanelTabHover) has the different style applyed that I stated in the accordion.css file, however the style (AccordionPanelTabHover) has the same style as the accordian it is within even though in the accordion.css file I stated a different background image.
    I hope all this makes sence below is my source and CSS Code.
    I appriciate any help that can be given to help resolve this issue I am running in too.

    Okay guys,
    I figured it out, if anyone was having the same problem as me and looking on this thread for the answer, here it is.
    Firstly if you're wanting to seperatly style two or more Spry Accordions that are not within each other e.g.
    <div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
      <div class="AccordionPanel">
        <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
        <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
       <p>Content Goes Here </p>
    </div><!-- end #Accordion1 Content -->
      </div><!-- end #Accordion1 .AccordionPanel -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion1 -->
    <div id="Accordion2" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
      <div class="AccordionPanel">
        <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
        <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
       <p>Content Goes Here </p>
    </div><!-- end #Accordion2 Content -->
      </div><!-- end #Accordion2 .AccordionPanel -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion2 -->
    You don't have to do this, as long as you have seperate ID's for the divs (which dreamweaver automatically does anyway) you'll be fine.
    However if for some reason you want to put one accordion inside another like I did e.g.
    <div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
      <div class="AccordionPanel">
        <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
        <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
       <p>Content Goes Here </p>
    <div id="Accordion2" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
      <div class="AccordionPanel">
        <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Label 1</div>
        <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
       <p>Content Goes Here </p>
    </div><!-- end #Accordion2 Content -->
      </div><!-- end #Accordion2 .AccordionPanel -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion2 -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion1 Content -->
      </div><!-- end #Accordion1 .AccordionPanel -->
    </div><!-- end #Accordion1 -->
    Too style Accordian 1 & 2 so their tabs both have different backgrounds and Hover background when the content panel is open and closed you have to style it in the CSS they following way;
    CSS
    #Accordion1  .AccordionPanelTab {
    height:75px;
    width:285px;
    background:url(../images/package_spry_tab_bg.png);}
    #Accordion1 .AccordionPanelTabHover,
    #Accordion1 .AccordionPanelOpen .AccordionPanelTabHover {
    height:75px;
    width:285px;
    background:url(../images/package_spry_tab_bg_RO.png);}
    #Accordion2  .AccordionPanelTab {
    height:44px;
    width:469px;
    background:url(../images/packages_spry.png);}
    #Accordion2 .AccordionPanelClosed .AccordionPanelTabHover,
    #Accordion2 .AccordionPanelOpen .AccordionPanelTabHover {
    height:44px;
    width:469px;
    background:url(../images/packages_spry_ro.png);}
    Normally when styling two seperate spry accordions you can just use the following code
    #Accordion1  .AccordionPanelTab {
    height:75px;
    width:285px;
    background:url(../images/package_spry_tab_bg.png);}
    #Accordion1 .AccordionPanelTabHover,
    #Accordion1 .AccordionPanelOpen .AccordionPanelTabHover {
    height:75px;
    width:285px;
    background:url(../images/package_spry_tab_bg_RO.png);}
    The only difference with styling a Spry accordion within another to ensure they have different hover backgrounds when the content panel is open and closed is ".AccordionPanelClosed".
    Hope this helped anyone who was having the same issue I was.

  • Spry accordian panel not closing

    I have created a page using both the spry tabbed panels and
    accordian panels. The accordian panels are in the content sections
    of the tabbed ares. I want the accordian panels to be closed
    initially, and whenever you click on the tab of the panel it will
    open if it is closed, and close if it is open. I have modified the
    code (as described in the Adobe Resource section) at the bottom of
    the div. I got it to work on a simpler page (without the tabbed
    panels) but I can't get it to close when click on if open. It will
    close if another tab is clicked, but that isn't what I want. I'm
    thinking it has something to do with the fact that it is in the
    tabbed panels spry, or I am overlooking something. I am not very
    verse in javascript, so I can't troubleshoot it. Can someone look
    at the code and suggest a solution? The site is
    http://www.capitolphotointeractive.com/test

    Hi amilesslady,
    You'll need to replace the version of the SpryAccordion.js
    file on your site with a more recent one. You can get the the one
    from Spry 1.6.1 here:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/widgets/accordion/SpryAccordion.js
    Or you can download the Dreamweaver 1.6.1 updater and use it
    to update the Spry related files in Dreamweaver and your sites.

  • Spry Accordian Panel not showing?? What am I missing?

    http://www.neighbor.org/plan_giving2.htm
    Take a look at the last accordian panel, it is not showing fully, but you can still click on it depending in what browser.  How do I adjust it to show fully - The Planned Giving Council Tab.
    Thanks,
    TD

    I'm not seeing the problem on any of my browsers, but I see you have built the page in Frames, which are an old technology, and a little hard to troubleshoot from here.
    It could be that the height of your Accordion is falling deeper than the Browser Viewport, then being hidden by the bottom of the Frame. Try shortening up the accordion; there could be a little space taken out between the accordion tabs.

  • Spry Accordian panel content height for more than 1 accordian in site

    Hi,
    I have added a couple of accordians to my website on different pages.
    When I adjust the panel content height for 1 it automatically changes it for all of them on my site causing scroll bars to be visible - which I am trying to avoid.
    I'm new to Spry coding and am not sure what to change.
    Thank you for your help

    This is a frequent question, in one form or other. It helps to understand that when you insert a Spry Widget, the associated javascript and CSS files are also added to your site files. And if you insert a second of the same type of Widget, DW checks and sees the original js and css files and does not add a second (or third). This is efficient, and also keeps your styling uniform across all instances of that Widget in your site.
    If you want Widgets of the same type styled differently, you need to add to your CSS stylesheet style selectors that focus on those parts you want to be different.
    Because Widgets are already ID'd, you can't add a new ID directly to the Widget <div> But you can wrap the Widget in a new div and put an ID on that.
    Say you want two accordions on a page, one with panel content height of 100px and one with panel content height of 200px.
    ID your accordions' wrapper divs: <div id="normalheight"> and <div id="doubleheight"> (use better descriptive IDs).
    In the CSS stylesheet, do this:
    .AccordionPanelContent {
        overflow: auto;
        margin: 0px;
        padding: 0px;
        height: auto;
    #normalheight .AccordionPanelContent {
         height: 100px;
    #doubleheight .AccordionPanelContent {
         height: 200px;
    Be sure to add them directly after the given rule for .AccordionPanelContent; you are re-writing the height in that style selector for your two more specific accordions.

  • Need help with horizontal accordian panels

    Hi,
    I'm wondering how I would re-create a horizontal accordian panel set, such as the one used in this website link, "http://www.thecapriapts.com/".
    When I insert a "spry accordian" panel set, the panels are stacked on top of each other. I guess you would consider that a "vertical" accordian. Is it possible to manipulate the CSS to have it display horizontally, like the link I attached? Or.. is this a common javascript that I sould look into?
    As always, thanks for your help out there...
    Chris

    With spry, there are two different kinds you can use: horizontal and vertical. What you're looking at in that site is horizontal. Usually, it appears as rectangles placed next to each other with the spry flying out below. In DW, you can go to your CSS rules for your spry menu and change the width and height of your boxes in your spry, depending upon which rule you have selected. Play around with that and see if you can just manipulate the horizontal accordian spry to where the rectangles end up being tall and thin. This will make it difficult, however, to get the text on its side like you see in that site. I'm not sure how you would go about doing that. But I would suggest trying to play around with the values in your CSS styles panel on the right (this is me looking at CS5 mind you. I'm not sure what you're running.)
    Either way, for times sake and also readability, might I respectfully suggest playing around with other sprys to see if any look more aesthetically pleasing for your site? It would also make it a lot simpler to tweak to your liking.

  • Problems editing accordian panels

    Hi,
    Have an issue where InContext editing was capable last month of editing a page with Spry accordian panels, but recently weno longer can edit the panels.
    The subject page is
    http://www.peradance.com/Atlanta-Dance-Classes-Calendar.html
    which is a dance class calendar.
    Each class is defined as a repeating region consisting of a title and a description, both within a Spry accordian panel which when click expands the accordian detail window to show the description.
    I set this up for the client weeks ago and to my surprise it worked OK with InContext editing. However, now we find it is difficult to edit the text in the title windows -- perhaps some recent update to InContext editing has broken this ability.
    We can add or duplicate a repeating region to add a new class, but when we try to click inside the Title box for that class we can't seem to insert a cursor anymore to change the text -- InContext editing now seems confused and wants to expand/contract the description panel, rather than let us insert a cursor to edit the title.  We can insert the cursor in the description and edit it OK.
    This fails using Windows Firefox, IE8 and IE7 so trying another browser doesn't help.
    I tried to talk the client into a simpler calendar without the Spry expanding accordian (just have the class title and description always exposed) but he would rather abandon Adobe's software than give up that functionality. What he really wanted rather than the accordian was for the class description to appear in a popup window when the cursor hovers any title, but I discovered there is no way to use Spry tips or any javascript popup in a way that the client can edit with InContext editing. I was surprised to find the Accordian panel did work fine. Why it has now stopped working is a mystery.
    The code for a day on the calendar looks like this:
    <div class="day">
    <p class="title">Monday</p>
      <div id="Accordion2" class="Accordion" tabindex="0" ice:repeatinggroup="*">

    The Accordion keyboard navigation feature (the ability to change the open panel using the keyboard keys )  is preventing InContext Editing to properly edit the contents of the editable region.
    You can disable to keyboard navigation feature of an Accordion by setting it to false in the constructor:
        var Accordion1 = new Spry.Widget.Accordion("Accordion1", { useFixedPanelHeights: false , enableKeyboardNavigation:false});
    Note: to disable keyboard navigation when the page is loaded inside InContext Editing use:
    var useKeyboard = typeof(top.ice) == "undefined";
    var Accordion1 = new Spry.Widget.Accordion("Accordion1", { useFixedPanelHeights: false , enableKeyboardNavigation:useKeyboard });
    This will make the editable regions editable only in Internet Explorer.
    There's a CSS rule used by the Accordion  widget to disable text selection on the panel titles in Firefox and Safari:search .AccordionPanelTab in the SpryAccordion.css file and remove:
        -moz-user-select: none;
        -khtml-user-select: none;
    See the InContext Editing known issues and limitations, the Editing section, from Adobe Labs InContext Editing page.

  • Spry Accordian with dynamic panels from XML

    Hi. I've searched, but haven't seen anybody answer this yet.
    I'm trying to build a page that uses a spry accordian to display
    data by category. So category 1 is on panel 1 in a spry table with
    a link to a spry detail section on the page. Category 2 is on panel
    2 in a spry table with a link to the same spry detail section, etc.
    I have 2 issues: 1) I haven't figured out how to filter a
    single XML data set onto different accordian panels or
    2) how to get the same detail region to take links from
    different XML data sets on the different panels.
    Any help that anybody could give would be VERY much
    appreciated.
    THANKS!

  • How to make Spry Collapsible Panels open one at a time?

    Hello,
    I am using CS5 and want to use the spry collapsible panels. What I notice (and I think this wasn't the case in cs3) is that all panels can be open at the same time. I don't want that happen. I only want one panel to be open at a time. If someone clicks on a panel that is closed, I want the current panel to close and the one they clicked on to open. I don't want multiple panels to be opne at once. How can I do this? I am not a web developer by any means, so please be easy on me with code. I think in CS3 it used to work this way. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you in advance!

    GRAMPS!! That's it!! It was the accordian panel I had used in the past!!!! Oh, thank you, I was driving myself crazy as to why it wasn't working the way I had remembered!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!
    I was told you would probably help me find the right answer by Hans-g!
    Thanks again!

  • Spry Tabbed Panels overwritting popup menu in IE6 and IE7 but display fine in Firefox

    I am new to Spry and Dreamweaver CS3 and would appreciate any
    help anyone can give. I am having an issue with Spry Tabbed Panels
    appearing above a navigation bar pop up menu only in IE6 and IE7.
    Everyhting works like expected in FF. I have several product pages
    that are exhibiting the same issue. I am not having this issue when
    using Spry Accordian. Would someone be able to educate me on what I
    can do to fix this problem. One of the product pages that is
    exhibiting this problem is
    Page
    with display issue

    The IE browsers implement z-indexing differently than most
    browsers ... specifically, IE browsers establish a new z-index
    context if you set the position CSS property of an element to
    anything other than static.
    What this means is that if you set something to
    position:relative ... any z-index values of children inside that
    element will be relative to that element.
    In your case, you seem to have a position relative on your
    div FWTableContainer1966866324. If you set the z-index value to
    something like 10, you'll notice that it fixes the problem.

  • Spry Accordian in navigation

    Hi,
    I am new to the spry and I am using DW CS 3 from a Mac
    (Leopard). It's a cool effect that help designers me who are new to
    scripting or no background at all. I am trying to use the Spry
    Accordian in my navigation as a vertical menu with sub categories
    inside each panel content. My client want to use a specific font so
    I cannot use regular fonts inside the accordian. So I am using jpeg
    button images as roll over, both inside the panel and panel
    contents. I have figured out things like variable heights in
    panels, setting default panels etc. and it works well.
    However the issue is my client says that on IE on a PC the
    whole thing is shaky when navigating, as it jumps around in
    transition which I noticed even on my Safari. After searching
    through your help forums I saw a similar post and the
    recommendation was update the Spry to 1.6. I did that I it seems to
    have helped it localy on my computer in Safari. I haven't changed
    it on the test site as I wanted an expert from here to look at it
    and let me know if I am on the right track or if I need to do
    anything else.
    You can see what my client is referring to when you are in
    OUR PEOPLE category (select a bio) and then try to select OUR
    SOLUTIONS (again select a sub category) and the whole accordian
    jumps and shifts before settling down the way I want it. Any help
    you can give me is much appreciated.. and please note that I am
    basically a designer and not a programmer, so my knowledge on
    scripts are limited...
    Here's the URL to the test site:
    http://www.canlanka.com/ignition/company.html

    Thanks for your reply.....
    The reason I am using images are because the client wants the
    corporate font (Antique Olive) at least used on the buttons and
    headline. This prevents me using the CSS styles and I am not
    proficient enough to find a way to embed this particular font. I
    can change the jpegs into giffs as you suggested if that helps. I
    am also wondering if the staggered loading is anything to do with
    the overflow setting on the panels in the SpryAccordian.css file? I
    had to change it to visible in order to go in and change the image
    as they are selected, after which I have kept the setting as
    AUTO... may be is should be HIDDEN... or it may got n0thing to do
    with the issue... but I am running out of options here....

  • Spry Accordian properties not editable in CS3

    Hi all
    Long time since I posted here :)
    Got a problem with the Spry Accordian in CS3 - the properties
    don't show
    up so I can't edit the panels (except directly) and can't
    stipulate
    the default state, like open or closed etc. The only option,
    if one can
    call it that, is "remove the animated accordian".
    Does anyone know if this is a known issue or just something
    I've done wrong?
    Thanks all,
    Judi

    Got it sorted thanks - well, on my Vista machine anyway.

  • Link to specific accordian panel

    Hi there,
    I'm currently using the Spry Accordian feature (with 4 panels) on an internal page of a site I'm building. I have a requirement to place 4 links on the homepage that take me to this internal page and open specific panels, ie. one link would take you to the page with panel 3 open, while another would take you to the page with panel 4 open.
    Any advice on how I can achieve this would be greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards
    Paul
