the world accordion to me

One of the things I forgot to blog about last week was scriptaculous - a JavaScript framework that we started to work with in the face to face class.

A search for scriptaculous on Training o2 will turn up links to the stuff we covered. Have a browse through and then...

Install scriptaculous and see if you can't fix this FAQ so that it only shows the questions. When a visitor clicks on a question the FAQ content for that question should be expanded 'accordion style' onto the page. Just cut and paste the contents section off the FAQ page for this project, don't worry about the navigation stuff, then upload to the bathurst-tafe server and blog about it so I can go look.

For bonus marks, add a link in each FAQ answer that closes down that division, or automagically close any open divison when you open up a new one.

For 'hero' status, add code that ensures your JavaScript is accessible. (you'll need to do some research into accessibility and look into unobtrusive JavaScript)
