Best way to outline?

Easiest, best way?

[Clark]

I vaguely remember some kind of outlining tag that allows you to double click a word, which wasn't even underlined and it pulled open content. But it didn't seem to work well on all the browsers nor was it implemented much.

I don't know squat about javascript and never really liked using it much.

What I want this for is I got a simple search form and an advanced one. I'd like to be able to click on the advanced button and have it open the advanced options without going to the server. Is there some simple code that works on the major browsers to do this?

If you use DreamWeaver it will generate some javascript for you that does this, the function is MM_showHideLayers(). It's similar in concept to the dropdown menu code you see on many sites these days. Without getting too technical, your best bet would be use DreamWeaver and just let it create the layers and script for this.

Never noticed that. I'm on dreamweaver 4.

Maybe this isn't on my version of dreamweaver because I looked and looked and cannot find it. Any other ideas? Now I have another need for the same thing elsewhere.

This kind of interface (show hide div) is a combination of javascript ad CSS. This thread in our Javascript forum has a couple examples:

Interesting, thanks.
