Using Spry Collapsible Panels

How do I set up a function to open or close all collapsible
panels with JavaScript? Do I need functions, or is there an
existing function that can do this? My panels are named
sequentially:
CollapsiblePanel1
CollapsiblePanel2
Thanks for any help; I want to create an announcements list
and let visitors quickly open or close all panels.

Try a CollapsiblePanelGroup widget.

Preventing overlapping divs (using spry collapsible panel)?

I'm using a collapsible panel. below that is another div.
When user clicks on collapsible panel it revelas it content. The following div with content(i.e. <div class=""> </div>
             <div class="clean-graypop">
               <input type="radio" value="a" name="question1" />...) moves down. At least when viewed in a browser.
However, when viewed in print preview, and when printed. the contents of the collapsible panels now overlaps the content of the following div contents

Spry Collapsible panel - open and closed default question...

I am using a Spry Collapsible panel in a vertical nav menu (DW CS4) and it's in a template for my site. I want it to be closed as default on the Home page, but when a visitor clicks to open it and selects their option, I would like it to remain open on the selected page - Is there a way to do this?
Thank you all!

Link to tabs in spry collapsible panel work in IE-8; not Firefox or Safari

I have little experience with Spry. I've asked my question on the user forum in Dreamweaver several times with no response. I am hoping that someone somewhere in the Adobe community can help me resolve this issue.
I created links from the top of a page to the tabs of a spry collapsible panel underneath.
In IE-8, on one page, with a small collapsiable panel, clicking the link creates a rollover effect on the appropriate panel. This effect works wonderfully for my purposes.On another page, with a long collapsible panel, clicking the link jumps the user to the panel AND creates a rollover effect. Perfect.
In Firefox and Safari, clicking the link does nothing. If I right-click the link in Firefox, I create a duplicate of the page.
I am using Windows XP and Dreamweaver CS4
http://www.judydiamondstone.net/Writing.html
click any of the links in the first section of the page
Thanks.

Arnout, Thank you so much for the guidance!
My code now looks like this:
(Click the first tab
below to open; click to close.)
but it still doesn't work
(I still like the error effect in IE!)
Do I need to add to the CSS or JS script that comes with the spry widget?
I am accessing all the tutorials I can find, including a very clear
explanation of event handlers in a Safari online search but I'm obviously
missing one or more basic concepts.

Help with spry collapsible panel

I have several spry collapsible panels that I am using for
navigation and want an open panel to close automatically when a new
one is opened. Can this be done? I checked the "customuze this
widget" in the property inspector but does not give any info on the
behavior of them. I am sure it is in the java code but I am not a
Java expert by any means.

Have a look at the last example http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/collapsiblepanel/CollapsiblePanelGroupSamp le.html

Spry Collapsible Panel at bottom of page - how to make the browser scrolldown automatically

The question is -
i have a collapsible panel at the bottom of my page that I'm using as a footer menu.
It is 200px tall. The visitor clicks on "FIND OUT MORE", then the panel opens 200px tall.
I want the viewing area of browser to focus on the content of this panel, and automatically scroll down 200px to accomodate the new real estate at the bottom of the page.
Now they click on it, but then have to manually scroll down.
How can I do this? What do I add to the Spry Collapsible Panel js scripts?
I tried using a tag at the bottom of the 200px but can't get it to work correctly.
Dreamweaver CS5.
thanks

I have been closing IE and reopening it for 7 months now. I don't of any other way to reload an applet.

Spry collapsible panel - panel (link) border issue

Hi folks. I'm new to spry and I'm inserting a spry collapsible panel into a web page in Dreamweaver CS4. It all works fine but i have this very ugly border around the panel tab (the link that you click to open the panel). In frefox its a dotted line and in safari its a blue border. I havent had change to check this in other browsers/platforms. (I'm using a mac) I've read that its an accessabilty thing? which can be overcome in a different way. I have to get rid of this border as it completely spoils the design of the site..
Anyone know how to remove this?
Thanks in advance :-)

Hi, I asked that same question a minute ago, then I saw your solution you wrote to someone else previously.
Works for me too!
Thanks for solving it!
Here is another question if you can help...
I currently have ">>read more" at the end of the text in my top content tab panel, so the user knows to click and read more in a lower panel.
I want that ">>read more" text to disappear when it is clicked and lower content section is open.
And then a "read less" to appear so user knows to click the top tab content to close the bottom panel.
Can this be done using this Spry Collapsible technique?
Thanks!

Spry Collapsible Panel Problem with Safari

Hi my Spry Collapsible Panel looks great in Firefox, Camino, and IE, but the top border, which I am using as a line to divide items in the list, and which I have specified in the CSS page, doesn't show up in Safari and Google Chrome. Just nothing, and everything else works. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!   My CSS page reads as follows:

/* This is the selector for a CollapsiblePanel's Content area. It's important to note that
* you should never put any padding on the content area element if you plan to

* element can cause the CollapsiblePanel to abruptly grow in height while the panels animate.
* The name of the class ("CollapsiblePanelContent") used in this selector is not necessary
* to make the widget function. You can use any class name you want to style a
* CollapsiblePanel content container.
.CollapsiblePanelContent {

    padding: 0px;
.CollapsiblePanelTab a {
    text-decoration: none;

Spry Collapsible Panel problem when previewing in web browser

Hello.
I have inserted a spry collapsible panel into my website, made ZERO adjustments to any of the scripting or even css styling, and previewed the panel in my Safari browser. It does not seem to be working correctly. I've attached a couple of images showing what the panel looks like in the browser. My site is not published yet, so I cannot give out the url.
Is something wrong with the js file? I tried the panel earlier on a different site on the same computer and it was working fine.
the "Tab" menu text does not fit inside the grey box. Everything collapses fine, however, the gray box is too thin for the text. I've tried adjusting it in the CSS sheet, but it doesn't seem to change anything.
This is the panel in the collapsed state. It looks bad. I know it's not supposed to work like this.
When I preview the site in "live view" everything works fine...

I have inserted a spry collapsible panel into my website, made ZERO
adjustments to any of the scripting or even css styling
That is good, that means that I have a local copy of the scripting and css files eliminating the need to attach the code to a post.
Is something wrong with the js file? I tried the panel earlier on a
different site on the same computer and it was working fine
The fact that it works on a different site means that something is correct. My assumption is that the scripting and css files are doing their job correctly and to answer your question regarding the js file, no.
Having eliminated the Spry original JavaScript and CSS files as being the culprits, there must be a problem with the rest of the site, incorrect HTML, other interfering JavaScript or CSS.
I can keep guessing, but only those persons that are privy to your code can give you any positive input. Please find a way to upload your files so that we can see the code in context.
To this end, screen captures do not assist in solving the problem, they only add to others' amusement at seeing the problem.

Spry Collapsible panel works in Safari, Firefox but not in IE 7 and 8

Revising a page and wish to have the Spry Collapsible Panel load "closed". Never used Spry before but is works ok as mentioned but when page is opened in IE the panel is open and stays open. Clicking does not close it.
The panel tab reads "CLICK To See Matched Rail & Stile Set-Up Blocks".
Did I mention I am not a programmer? Thanks for the help.

Jon,
Not a good way to start. You need to have some basic skills to work on websites. OK, if you want to build a bridge for your toy cars to cross a model railway line, you could probably cope, but to build a bridge in the real world, you need real knowledge.
Having said that, I have pulled all of the relevant code from your page to re-construct the collapsible panel and, although the markup would not be the one I would have gone for, the widget works in all browsers, see the code below. This means that the problem lies elsewhere.

Spry collapsible panel stays open in Internet Explorer.

I'm trying to use the spry collapsible panel to hide and show inormation, and it will not stay closed. I've used the default closed option in the properties panel, and made sure the eye in design view is closed. Please give some suggestions for correcting this problem.

The out-of-the-box SpryCollapiblePanel works like a charm.
This means that you have altered the HTML, CSS and/or the JS.
Because we are not privy to what you have done, it is not possible to help you find a solution.
I recommend that you upload the site and supply a link to that site.

Spry Collapsible panel and ul

I've got 5 spry collapsible panels in a page, each panel with
<ul>'s inside them.
Now whats happening is when you click to open a panel the
<ul> is appearing and overlapping all the other panels while
the panel is opening, rather than gradually appearing as the panel
opens.
Is there anyway to stop this. It works spot on in
firefox.

HI Littlened,
First of all, it's best to use the last version of the Spry
files (1.6), I see you are using 1.4. You can download the latest
version of the Spry Framework
here.
The problem is caused by one your CSS classes:
.navbar_ci ul li {
position: relative;
IE has problems with relative positioned elements; if you use
them, their parents must also be relative positioned; but if you
don't need this, it's best to avoid using it.

Spry Collapsible Panel question

I have a file online that uses a Spry collapsible panel. It can be viewed here. It works beautifully. For one exception. The logo is supposed to be up some 10 pixels or so. The CollapsiblePanelTab is occupying the space.
So I took the CSS for the CollapsiblePanelContent and moved it up 1em <margin-top: -1em;>. That put my logo where it should be. Problem is that when I do this the transparent portion of the logo covers most of the "Hide / Show Logo." It leaves only a sliver of the right of the tab. This file can be viewed here.
The logo consists of the image and the bar underneath it. Yes, I could crop the image down to the central part, making it narrower, but I do want the bar which is wider. And I want the bar to disappear when the Spry is activated so that rules out having it as a separate image..
Even better I would like when the panel is open for the "Hide / Show Logo" to be just above the bar. I tried that and it threw everything out of kilter.
Any suggestions! Thank you in advance for any responses.

Beth,
   Thought of it, did it, didn't work.
   If I remove the logo from the HTML of the page and instead place it in the "background-image" of the CollapsiblePanelContent CSS I get disastrous results. The panel collapses (because there is nothing in the DIV) and the CSS placed background image disappears. Following this thread of thought I could try a much narrower transparent image with nothing in it, just the transparency, and see how that might work. This would keep the DIV open to the desired height. Then I could place the actual, true image in the "background-image" of the DIV CSS.
   For the moment I am going to see if someone perhaps comes up with a solution other than this. The chief reason is that I would lose my dynamic linking of the PSD to the placed image. This file will be a template of thousands of pages spanning many years so the logo will change appropriately.
   This method, of using the image in the CSS itself, also causes some alignment problems within the DIV. My background-image does not center properly. It does so when placed in the HTML of the document.
   Getting back to the original problem, which seems to be the transparency of the image and its width, I don't see any reason why I could not break my image into two pieces and place each one within the CollapsiblePanelContent. Each image in their own DIV contained within the panel content. I could then make the logo part separate from the bar but still have the bar collapse. The logo portion could then be much narrower. I think I will try this method and see what transpires. I could then keep my dynamically linked images. Theoretically!!!
   Thanks for letting me bounce ideas off a fellow thick skull. Not seeing the trees for the forest and all that.
Regards,
Wayne

DW CS6 - Spry collapsible panels - How to have panel close when you click away from it?

I know typically onmouseout is used to close other items, but I could not figure it out with the spry collapsible panel. I have the panel opening onclick and closing onclick, but I would really like for it to close when you click anything else on the page outside of the panel.
Thank you!

Sorry, I did not mean other collapsing panels close when you click away from it. I simply meant in general for the closing after clicking away function, you can use onmouseout. I was working on something with collapsing panels and I wanted it to show the information when you clicked on it, but when you click on another panel, they both remain open. I really want both to close. I believe accordion does this, but not quite what I am looking for either.
Here is a better example of what I would prefer: Houston Public Library
If you visit their page and click "Find it" a box pops down with information and then when you click anywhere else on the screen, it closes that box. When you click "Research," it closes the "Find It" box and opens the "Research" box. There is likely a much better way to do this, but I am pretty new to this.
Any assistance is very much appreciated.
Thank you!

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!
