Hi all,

Can someone help me out with the syntax to make a simple jQuery accordion work?

I found this example that works but it is not an accordion...

• Option a
• Option b

Many thanks! Frank

MediaWiki itself has no syntax to make an accordion effect. You should use custom JavaScript to do that (see examples at http://jqueryui.com/accordion/ )

Ok, I have pasted the code you referred to. If this does not work do we have to use the Resource loader (never done that) or declare JQuery-UI someplace?

Section 1

Mauris mauris ante, blandit et, ultrices a, suscipit eget, quam. Integer ut neque. Vivamus nisi metus, molestie vel, gravida in, condimentum sit amet, nunc. Nam a nibh. Donec suscipit eros. Nam mi. Proin viverra leo ut odio. Curabitur malesuada. Vestibulum a velit eu ante scelerisque vulputate.

Section 2

Sed non urna. Donec et ante. Phasellus eu ligula. Vestibulum sit amet purus. Vivamus hendrerit, dolor at aliquet laoreet, mauris turpis porttitor velit, faucibus interdum tellus libero ac justo. Vivamus non quam. In suscipit faucibus urna.

Section 3

Nam enim risus, molestie et, porta ac, aliquam ac, risus. Quisque lobortis. Phasellus pellentesque purus in massa. Aenean in pede. Phasellus ac libero ac tellus pellentesque semper. Sed ac felis. Sed commodo, magna quis lacinia ornare, quam ante aliquam nisi, eu iaculis leo purus venenatis dui.

• List item one
• List item two
• List item three

Section 4

Cras dictum. Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Vestibulum ante ipsum primis in faucibus orci luctus et ultrices posuere cubilia Curae; Aenean lacinia mauris vel est.

Suspendisse eu nisl. Nullam ut libero. Integer dignissim consequat lectus. Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos himenaeos.

Well it does not react like an Accordion... Many thanks for your support! Frank

Found it!

We have to put the following in Mediawiki:Common.js :

mw.loader.load( 'jquery.ui.accordion' ); function my_accordion() {

  jQuery( "#accordion" ).accordion({ collapsible: true, active: false });

} jQuery( my_accordion);

Reference : more here!

The sample posted by 173.177.129.164 will fail randomly due to asynchronous race conditions. Use this instead:

mw.loader.using('jquery.ui.accordion', function () {
  $(function () {
    $('.accordion').accordion({ collapsible: true, active: false });
  });
});
