suttercain Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Hi everyone, Before you yell at me and tell me this should be posted in the AJAX section, let me explain myself I am able to apply the AJAX expand and collapse function with no problem when I am not trying to do it in PHP. Here is an example of what I am trying to do, but the example is ASP: http://ajax.asp.net/ajaxtoolkit/CollapsiblePanel/CollapsiblePanel.aspx Here is the site I am trying to get this to work on: http://www.supermandatabase.com/storyarcs1.php As you can see on my page, there are numerous tables outputted from the mysql database. What I would like to do is have the tables outputted with only the table headers, and I will replace "COVER DATE" with an expand link... right now the link is there but it doesn't work. Here is the code for the page I link to above: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html><head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <style type="text/css"> @import url("sd_style.css"); </style> <script type="text/javascript"> function switchMenu(obj) { var el = document.getElementById(obj); if ( el.style.display != 'none' ) { el.style.display = 'none'; } else { el.style.display = ''; } } </script> <?php require ('get_connected.php'); ?> <?php include ('head.php'); ?> <title>Superman Database :: Story Arcs</title> <body> <table width="986" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" valign="top"> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign='top' bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <table width="650" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2"> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign='top'> <h2>Comic Book Story Arcs</h2></td> </tr> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign='top'><?php //Convert seriesTitle Column to out put from the MySQL instead of HTML $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM comics WHERE story_arc != '' AND story_arc != 'null' AND story_arc IS NOT NULL ORDER BY story_arc, arc_part") or die (mysql_error()); $current = ''; $series = ''; while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql)) { if($current != $row['story_arc']) { $current = $row['story_arc']; echo "<table width='630' border='0' bgcolor=#253b5a cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'> <tr> <td width='430'><font color=#ffffff><b>" . strtoupper($current) . "</b></font></td> <td width='150'<font color=#ffffff><b>PART</b></font></td> <td width='150'<font color=#ffffff><b>"; ?><a onclick="switchMenu('myvar');">COVER DATE</b></font></a><?php echo "</td> </tr><br>"; } //Continuation of CSS for the Alternating Color Rows $class = $class == 'even' ? 'odd' : 'even'; //Populate the Tables from the Database echo "<tr class=\"$class\">\n"; echo "<div id='myvar'>"; echo "<td><a href='/comics/view_comics.php?id=" . $row['comic_id'] . "'>" . $row['title'] . " #".$row['issue_number']."</a></td>\n"; echo "<td>".$row['arc_part']."</td>\n"; $cover_date = date('F, Y', strtotime($row['cover_date'])); echo "<td>$cover_date</td>\n"; echo "</tr>\n"; echo "</div>"; } echo "</table>"; echo "<br>"; ?> </td> </tr> </table> <div align="left"><br> </div></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="17%" valign="top"></td> </tr> </table> </table> <?php include('foot.php'); ?> </body> </html> Any suggestions or advice would be great.
