JQuery UI accordion - no errors, and no accordion.

Spudhead · 09-01-2008, 12:48 PM

I swear I got this working last week

I tried to add a slider to it, and it stopped working. So I took the slider back out, and it's still not working.

What I've got is below. I really can't see any significant ways it differs from the example - I'm pulling in the JQuery JS files from the Google code repository but they're loading fine and contain all the required bits as far as I can see.

The thing that's bugging me is that there are no errors. And it's behaving exactly the same in FF and IE. I must be missing something obvious, but I'm flumped if I can spot what it is

	margin:0;
	padding:0;

Accordion looks for the next block after the link to accordionize. But since the anchor is inside the <h2></h2> element, there is no next block after the link. Try removing the <h2></h2>, it should work. Or tell Accordion to use the h2 instead of defaulting to the anchor.
