Please take a look at http://www.aba.com/community+development/default.htm

On the left, there are two navigation buttons ... "Navigate aba.com" and "Members aba.com"

I like the way the menus expand when you click on each navigation button ... and the menus retract when you click on the button again.

I understand that the menus expand by loading a series of new gifs ... each gif being given a hyperlink to a different page.

All of the code seems to be there when I "View Source."

I thought I had isolated just the code I need to make this "toggle on and off" or "onClick" work.

The "onClick" portion of the code seemed easy to locate ... it begins with
<a href="page1.html" onClick="return toggleMenu('menu1')">

But after a couple of hours of trial and error, I am unable to isolate/locate the code that makes the whole thing work.

Would you point me in the right direction, please.

Thanks very much.
