[jQuery] Re: Best (lightest) Accordian Menu PlugIn
A... that would explain why it was so hard to find... :-) . Well, it worked well for what I'm using it for, so thanks much. The height change sounds good, too. In my case it would be nice to be able to make one or two of the tabs a different height than the rest. I'm not concerned about overall height staying constantbut I also wouldn't want the whole thing to flash closed then recalculating the new outer height, either. Seems like that would lead to the flickering weirdness that other ones have (but I haven't poked into what the reason with that isI know there's an active thread about it...and another accordion that John made a demo of). I didn't notice a bug...what's the bug? I'm using jquery 1.1.2 with it. - Jack Justin Sepulveda wrote: Haha ... I had this up to show a small bug in the jQuery Fx; I didn't think people would use it.

[jQuery] Re: Best (lightest) Accordian Menu PlugIn
You'll notice in my example, the 4th tab jumps up just a bit when you click on any of the tabs. If you slow the speed down you'll notice it more. It's not a huge deal, but it can become annoying the more you focus on it :-) I just caught his new thread this morning. It fixes the issue I was talking about. I've implemented it into a new slider. I'll have it up soon. However you'll be stuck with each tab being the same height with this method. It's the only way to get it this smooth. If you don't mind the slight bump and/or want it to feel more like an accordion, then you can stick with what I already have up.
