Hi Mark
I'm using your excellent script to create dynamically generated
collapsing menus for my Movable Type-driven site, but have one
particular wrinkle with the CSS - your example shows the top level list
items as simple text, whereas all of mine are hrefs generated by MT.
The problem is that this causes the line to break into two, when your
javascript generates the expansion link - see attached screen dump.
I've been scratching my head over this for a while (I'm somewhere on
the lower slopes of the CSS learning curve), so are you able to suggest
a fix for this?
Your terms of use are entirely reasonable, btw, and I'll send you a
link to the site and credits as soon as I'm live!
regards
Richard

Richard,
The reson it breaks onto two lines is that my stylesheet uses display:block;
for the links. Block level elements will try to be on their own line. In my
examples, this does not matter, because the link wraps around the entire
heading. because your heading already contains a link, this will be on its
own line.
The only (easy) way to solve this is to remove the display:block; style for
links in the list. You can still use the other styles.

Hi Mark
Many thanks for your help - that's what I'd thought it was, and had
been trying to work out a way to keep the block display and not break
the lines. All sorted now, ta...
