I assume that they utilise actions available in freeway 5.
I’ve downloaded the guide but have not as yet been able to print it out (and for some reason I am mentally unable to red guides on-screen)
Does anyone know of a tutorial to guide through acheiveing this? Anyone with any answers?
Thanks

Thanks for the replies.
I’ve figured out what I guess is the ‘basics’ so far - by that I mean use of the transition FX to slide down upon trigger by a mouse click on another item. My next stage of puzzlement is how to have those trigger items so close yet move apart to reveal the content on the ‘slide down’.
I’ve tried placing items on layers and adding padding but an answer eludes me.
Has anyone an answer or can email me a freeway doc where they have achieved this so I can see how it’s done?
So often I’ve cobbled a solution together only to find that there is a more elegant and efficient solution, after I’ve gotten to a point where I can’t change it easily.
Freeway is a really, really great program but I wish Softpress would give help by giving samples of things we can download, especially new features. After all, I think that Freeway is aimed at those of us that find ease and convenience preferable over the likes of Dreamweaver

I can thoroughly recommend Weaver’s MooTools which includes an accordion action and gives far more control and options than the native Freeway action does. It also comes with instructions

That has to be the most interesting source code I’ve seen in a while. Is there a reason why the javascript “Fix for Scriptaculous flashing in Firefox and Camino” code is repeated 25 times?

The Actions let you do run the effects on page load or when triggered. I set mine up to run on page load and then also on trigger. The DeltaCreative site only runs on trigger.
The inline items to which the transition effect is applied are within a html item named ‘scriptParent’ that has properties I am unable to duplicate, such as the css tickbox ticked in the properties setting as well as float options and height can grow - I just can’t seem to work out how to do this.
I have checked through the handbook and so forth. Clearly I’m missing something, somewhere, and probably something very small!
Thanks

Make sure that you are inserting the HTML items as in-flow items
(double click inside the parent item and go to Insert>HTML Item). Take
a read through the text on the left hand side of my page which
explains it all.

Thanks to Joe Billings for the example and download and I can indeed
get this working to a point, however I am struggling with some
