I'm not really a programmer, and I may not understand the problem
correctly, but here's what I did:
<def tag="toggler" attrs="togglie">
<a href="javascript:;" onclick="Effect.toggle('#{togglie}', 'slide',
{ duration: 1.0 });">
<h3 param="default">Toggle target...</h3>
</a>
</def>
and then all you have to do is:
<toggler togglie="target/'s-id">Something other than the "toggle
target" text</toggler>
<div id="target/'s-id" style="display:none;">
Blah.. blah.. blah
</div
