Hi,
I have been playing around with your nested list collapsing script, (an
excellent script btw :D), have got it to work almost exactly how I want it
to, with one exception..
For me, it would be ideal if upon clicking a parent link (the +- ones that
open the sub menus) if this link could change style, specifically the
background image. (then on closing the original style would be reapplied) -
I have no problem switching styles when the user presses a link, but since
there is no visible link in the html code I cant assign an id / onclick
event to make the switch..
Scanning throught the code it seems the link is dynamically generated? - Is
there any way this background style for the parent link can be toggled as it
is pressed?
Many thanks

The script cannot do this, unfortunately, but some of my readers have
worked out some ways to make it work so that some things can change,
such as the +/- image, etc. This is done based on when the links are
clicked, so you may be able to adapt their work.
I have linked to their experiments on this page:

Nisad's demonstration is the closest to what you need.
