Re: [WebDNA] On click show hidden include

It keeps the original formatting.

interpreted = N
texte = --Apple-Mail-33--120902118 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252; format=flowed; delsp=yes This can be a very handy technique. Basically, you put the hidden =20 content inside
=85
tags, with the "visibility: hidden" =20 style. Outside that div block, you include a button / image / link =20 that triggers Javascript (which is a totally different thing than =20 "Java", though the language names create great confusion for many) =20 which changes this "visibility" setting. A simple example page: Hidden Block Test TOGGLE =20= HIDDEN BLOCK
THIS = =20 IS THE HIDDEN BLOCK.
YOU CAN PUT WHATEVER YOU WANT IN HERE.
