Hi, if you take a look at the bbc website and infused-gaming DOT net

You will see how you can have expandable bars which you can click which reveals the content, does anyone know the code for it?

Would be amazing help.

Thanks.

It's easy with the jquery library. Once you put the library files on your site, you use the slideToggle function, described here: Effects/slideToggle - jQuery JavaScript Library

Although I think I personally prefer the jQuery library as Herkalees has mentioned above, the same effect can be achieved using script.aculo.us, and probably many other JS libraries out there.
