[Pro] Accordion Pattern Viewer

I have so many background textures, some of them are just small tiles that can’t be adequately previewed unless I can see them as tiled backgrounds. I keep looking for ways to visualize them - this is just my latest effort.

I took a simple accordion script that lets me use divs with backgrounds to reveal the pattern… it uses a form checkbox to trigger the accordion, and follows this structure…

checkbox
label
article (container)

Of course, FWP wraps the checkbox and label in p tags, which seemed to kibosh the script. When I applied the Remove Paragraph Tags action, FWP then put the article element before the form elements instead of after them - again, neutralizing the script.

So I did the unthinkable and used Markup Items to insert the code I needed - and as you can see, it all works. I’m making the file available - along with over 30 tiling metallic background images - and asking if anyone can provide a better Freeway Pro solution… one with less Markup Item butchery.
