Creating a FAQ's page


Recommended Posts

I'm creating a FAQ's page. The layout that I want to use is to list the questions and allow the user to select the question and display the FAQ right under the question. If the user selects the question again, the answer gets hidden.

 

Does someone know how to code this functionality. I'm still learning.

 

Thanks.

Looks like I found something. This seems to work for me.

<html> 
<head> 
<title>Untitled</title> 
<script language="JavaScript"> 
function showAndHide(theId) { 
  var el = document.getElementById(theId); 
  var link = document.getElementById("moreLink"); 

  if (el.style.display=="none") { 
     el.style.display="block"; //show element 
     link.innerHTML = "Hide Links..."; 
  } 
  else { 
     el.style.display="none"; //hide element 
     link.innerHTML = "More..."; 
  } 
  return false; 
} 
</script> 
</head> 
<body> 
<p><a id="moreLink1" href="#" onClick="return showAndHide('QUESTION1')">FAQ #1</a></p> 
<div id='QUESTION1' style="display:none"> 
ANSWER 1<br> 
ANSWER 1A</a><br> 
ANSWER 1B</a><br> 
</div> 
</body>
</html>

 

Thanks for the help.

It can be done with php

<?php

function start_section( $id, $title )

{

?>
<div>


<a href="javascript: void twist('<?php echo($id); ?>');"><img style="border:none;" alt="click here to open menu" "src="images/up.jpg" id="img_<?php echo($id); ?>"/></a>

    <h3><?php echo( $title ); ?></h3>

<div style="visibility:hidden;position:absolute;"

  id="<?php echo($id); ?>" class="spin-content">

<?php

}

function end_section( )

{

?>

</div></div>



<?php

}

function spinner_header( )

{

?>

<style type="text/css">


h3 {border-bottom: 1px solid black;display:inline; }

.spin-content{font-size:small;padding:10px 0 10px 30px;}

</style>

<script language="Javascript">

function twist( sid )

{

  imgobj = document.getElementById( "img_"+sid );

  divobj = document.getElementById( sid );

  if ( imgobj.src.match( "images/up.jpg" ) )

  {

        imgobj.src = "images/down.jpg";

        divobj.style.position = "relative";

        divobj.style.visibility = "visible";

  }

  else

  {

        imgobj.src = "images/up.jpg";

        divobj.style.visibility = "hidden";

        divobj.style.position = "absolute";

  }

}

</script>

<?php

}

?>

 

in the page that u want to use the function.

<?php start_section( "one", "Equipment Checkout" ) ?>

<ul>

<li><a target="_blank" href="http://www.cslaee.com/pdf/forms/210_locker_checkout.pdf">EE-210</a></li>
    <li><a target="_blank" href="http://www.cslaee.com/pdf/forms/211_%20locker_checkout.pdf">EE-211</a></li>
    <li><a target="_blank" href="http://www.cslaee.com/pdf/forms/317_locker_%20checkout.pdf">EE-317</a></li>
    <li><a target="_blank" href="http://www.cslaee.com/pdf/forms/340_%20locker_checkout.pdf">EE-340</a></li>
    <li><a target="_blank" href="http://www.cslaee.com/pdf/forms/346_locker_checkout.pdf">EE-346</a></li>
