Karl - sorry - code would help huh :)
I was thinking about wrapping the label around the input - guess I could
go either way on that one - but here's my current HTML (this is actually
wrapped up in a ColdFusion loop so it outputs a huge list of topics and
categories:
Topic 1
0 item 1
0 item 2
Topic 2...
0 item 1
0 item 2
etc...
HTML
==========================================
<h3 class="right">TOPIC</h3>
<div class="details">
<div>
<input type="checkbox" value="#qryTopics.topicid#"
name="topic_#qryTopics.topicid#" id="topic_#qryTopics.topicid#">
<label class="label"
for="topic_#qryTopics.topicid#">#qryTopics.topic#</label>
</div>
</div>
jQuery
===========================================
// need to make this a function so we can re-apply row striping after
collapse/expand??
$('label:odd').removeClass('even').addClass('odd');
$('label:even').removeClass('odd').addClass('even');
// show all unchecked by default?
$('h3').click(function() {
// show details div
$(this).next().toggle("fast");
// toggle arrow indicator if expanded
$(this).toggleClass('down').toggleClass('right');
// hide unchecked items (need to add some logic to show if none
are checked
$(this).next('.details').find('input:checkbox').not(':checked').parent()
.hide();
});
This 'sort of' works. I can check the boxes - click on the H3 and then
when I re-expand the H3 - I only see the checked items. The problem is
if the user hides a topic without checking anything - I need to add in
some logic - if NONE of them are checked to allow them to see all the
unchecked items again - that's todays challenge... ;)
Thanks for any insight you can offer! I learned a lot yesterday just in
trial and error - but I'm always wondering when I do things in jQuery if
it's the 'best' way... :)
