Making a multi-treed faq

[ghost]

Is there an easy way to make the DHTML faq mod a multi-treed one? Essentially, can I have the large topics expand/contract as well as the answers? Tell me if I need to explain more and thanks for replies in advance.

If I understand you well, you mean the ability to expand/collapse FAQ sections? If so, I think it's not really easy with this MOD as it is. Because, we would need a unique identifier for each section, to build a DOM element id that we can use from an onclick event... ideally, we would have to generate those unique identifiers from the file faq.php itself.

If you're not in a hurry... give me some days and I will try to do it. I was also thinking to include alternate template files with different layouts... but, as always, anything requires time.

Please, bump this topic (and me) in a week or so.

10-4. That's exactly what I need and thanks for the help. Is there any good place where I can learn how to do this myself, so I don't take up too much of your time? Thanks.

bumping so it doesn't get missed... I'll try to find some time this week-end...

There are lots of places to learn javascript out there, a couple of examples that comes to mind:
