Toggle view with php case switch maybe?

[Monkuar]

Ok here's the deal. My forum shows subforums on each category if there any, here is the code for that:

 

///-------------------------------
// Get The Subforums
//-------------------------------
$querysub = $DB->query("SELECT name, id, read_perms FROM ibf_forums WHERE parent_id = '{$forum_data['id']}' ORDER BY ibf_forums.position");
if($DB->get_num_rows($querysub) > 0) {
$subinfo = "<span class=desc><br>Subforums: ";
while($subin = $DB->fetch_row($querysub)) {
if ( $subin['read_perms'] != '*' ) {
if ( ! preg_match( "/(^|,)".$ibforums->member['mgroup']."(,|$)/", $subin['read_perms'] ) ) {
$subinfo .= "";
}
else if ( preg_match( "/(^|,)".$ibforums->member['mgroup']."(,|$)/", $subin['read_perms'] ) ) {
$subinfo .= "<a href='{$ibforums->base_url}showforum={$subin['id']}'>{$subin['name']}</a>, ";
}
}
else if ( $subin['read_perms'] == '*' ) {
$subinfo .= "<span class=desc><a href='index.php?showforum={$subin['id']}'>{$subin['name']}</a></span> - ";
}

}

$subinfo = substr ($subinfo, 0, -2);
}

 

Ok now, I want a user to beable to switch on and off by clicking 1 link to show those subforums and hide those subforums:

 

kinda like this picture:

 

 

 

Ok so your saying that it's a different question and im asking for help on a forum? Wrong

 

I have the link and the functions to use the link here:

 

In my Login.php there's this thing I added.

case '08':

    $this->showhidesubforums();

    break;

 

 

I did that so then When people click: forums/index.php?act=Login&CODE=08

 

It reads off this function showhidesubforums():

function showhidesubforums()
	{
		global $ibforums, $DB, $std, $_COOKIE;

		put my code in this spot so i can show/hide subforums


	$std->boink_it($ibforums->base_url);
	exit();
}  

 

 

Ok please please I am willing to stay with u and get help from u and obsorb your knowledge in.. but I need ur help (im french srry for language)

 

But yea, I need to put in a case switch php to show/hide the subforums code way above or what?

Im going to school But I gota bump this

[radi8]

I have accomplished this in 2 ways. First, in my learning days, I would put a button on the form to force a page reload and then have the new form drawn. This is old school and not very efficient, although extremely effective. It can be frustrating for a user to have to wait for the page reload especially if a lot of db access is going on.

 

The second method is to use javascript and to manipulate div sections, essentially turning a div section on/off on the fly. This does not require a page reload and is extremely fast and effective.

 

Check the java script section for samples of this or pm me and I will supply an example of my crappy code.
