Automatically Animating Spry Accordion Widget on Page Load

Report · Jul 11, 2008

I've been searching and searching and still can't find a clue as how to make the Spry Accordion Widget automatically open the next panel. I want the panels to expand automatically and loop back at the last panel.

Do I need to create another function for this or is there already a function created in the .js file?

Any help is appreciated...even if you can point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Sounds more like you'd want sliding panels:

I've seen an automatic version created that might do what you want:

But if you really want an Accordion, then you might be able to adapt the code in the auto sliding panels above.

FYI: There's a Spry forum that would be better to post Spry related question in:
