Hello list.

I am a newbie with prototype, scriptaculous and with JS.

Right now, I have a successful ajax call that appears in my div (thedescription) when I mouse over the link, and disappears when I click on the link. What I would like to have happen is to combine this with an effect (ie, onclick="new Effect.toggle($('thedescription'),'blind')">) so that the user has to click on the link to show the description, and then click on it again to hide the description. I just can't get it to work by combining the ajax and the effect...Thanks for your help.


function getDescription(news_id) {
        var url = '/admin/site_admin/news_popup.lasso?news_id=' + news_id;
var myDiv = new Ajax.Updater('thedescription', url, {asynchronous:true});
        }

<span class="shownames" id = "show">
<a href="#" title="" onmouseover="getDescription([field:'id'])" onclick="CloseDescription();return false;">[field:'title']</a>
</span>
        <div id="thedescription"></div>
