First Accordion-Followed Screencast-Not Working

I just went through Dan’s screencast for the MooTools Accordion. It’s very well explained and I went through step by step as Dan did, and my accordion doesn’t open. It just sits there. I marked the settings exactly the same as Dan did, and I cannot figure out what the problem is. I did set the page for XHTML1.0 Strict because that’s what it said to do in Weaver’s instructions, but even trying it at HTML 4.01 Transitional and it made no difference.

This is my test page with screenshots of my settings:

Are your accordion items inline boxes inside one main box? If not, they should be.

Yes, they are all inline html boxes, just like the model in Dan’s
blog, one main container, with more html boxes inserted, clearing both
and turning off the height button.

It looks like you have Prototype and Scriptaculous on the same page as mootools. That won’t work as the scripts are incompatible and don’t play well together.

Oh, right you are. That’s from my WebYep init code. I thought I read
that Accordion worked with WebYep pages. I even saw a link to a site
with an Accordion on a WebYep page. Not so?

Mootools does. WebYep does not rely on Prototype or Scriptaculous that i’m aware of so they must be applied from something else you tried and removed.

WebYep does add both Prototype and Scriptaculous. I believe it has
something to do with the latest version where they added the photo
album feature, which all ties in with Lightbox.

As soon as I add the WebYep init code action to the page, the
Accordion stops working. I suppose I could go in and take this
reference to Prototype and Scriptaculous, but then what do I do on a
page where the client really DOES want to use the photo album? And I
really don’t want to have to delete that code on every page.

Have a look at http://users.softpress.com/joe/scriptaculous/

This accordion example uses Scriptaculous rather than the MooTools incarnation so should be fine with your WebYep introduced Scriptaculous
