New submission from Liang Bo Wang:
The code output toggle button (the `>>>` button on the top right) has been
disappeared and not functional on the current online documentation (both 3.4+
and 2.7).
For example, see any doc page that has interpreter outputs:
https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/introduction.html#numbers
https://docs.python.org/3.5/tutorial/introduction.html#numbers
https://docs.python.org/3.4/tutorial/introduction.html#numbers
https://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/introduction.html#numbers
These toggle buttons are created dynamically using jQuery by the script at
Doc/tools/static/copybutton.js. However, the method .toggle() it used for click
event handling has been deprecated since jQuery 1.8 and removed since jQuery
1.9.
https://api.jquery.com/toggle-event/
Current Python documentation ships with jQuery v1.11.1 and it has a new
.toggle() method with totally different behavior, which controls animation and
hide the element. Therefore those buttons are invisible and has no effect.
https://api.jquery.com/toggle/
To achieve the old behavior, one now needs to create this toggle event on one's
own. The most popular way to store the toggle state is by jQuery's .data() data
storage.
A patch is attached to make the button functional again.
