Expand Panel with Javascript?

[simonmicheal]

How do i find an object 'panel' and expand that object using javascript?

i've tried various things and none work


var tmp = document.getElementById('ctl00_ContentPlaceHo lderClient_treArchive').value;
tmp.expand();


document.getElementById('ctl00_ContentPlaceHo lderClient_treArchive').Expand();



Thanks

Each component is instantiated in the client (browser) using its .ClientID property. You should be able to just call the .expand() function.

Example

ctl00_ContentPlaceHolderClient_treArchive.expand();

Using .getElementById is not required (and will not work) because the client-side widgets are complex JavaScript objects and generally not accessible like standard html elements.

Hope this helps.
