Create a Simple Accordion with jQuery and CSS

As per the project I have to build a simple accordion and would like to share with you. So here I’m explaining how to build an accordion with jQuery and css. A plus and minus and a small gray gradient images are used in accordion. You can download and use for personal or commercial works but forbidden to redistribute other than bijusubhash.com. If you like this then please spread or back link from your website.The steps are explaining below. You can see a demo and download too.

Step 1: The jQuery Code

<script type="text/javascript" src="../js/jquery.js" ></script>
<script  type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.adCntnr div.acco2:eq(0)').find('div.expand:eq(0)').addClass('openAd').end() /*find the first child and opended by default, and add class openAd*/
.find('div.collapse:gt(0)').hide().end()
.find('div.expand').click(function() {
$(this).toggleClass('openAd').siblings().removeClass('openAd').end()
.next('div.collapse').slideToggle().siblings('div.collapse:visible').slideUp();
return false;
});
})
</script>

Step 2 : CSS Markup

/* Accordion Styles starts */
.adqstdts {
min-height:75px;
background:#f0f0f1;
border:1px solid #dbdbdc;
border-left:none;
border-right:none;
margin-top:7px;
padding:7px;
}
.asdDts {
color:#737374;
font-size:12px;
font-weight:normal;
line-height:25px;
}
.printAd {
background:url(../images/printer.png) no-repeat ;
padding-left:25px;
padding-bottom:2px;
padding-top:2px;
color:#737374;
}
.exportAd {
background:url(../images/document-export.png) no-repeat ;
padding-bottom:2px;
padding-left:25px;
padding-top:2px;
color:#737374;
}
.adCntnr .acco2 .expand {
background:url(../images/title_bar_bg.gif) repeat-x ;
line-height:28px;
border-left:1px solid #cfcece;
border-right:1px solid #cfcece;
padding-left:5px;
}
.adCntnr .acco2 .expand a{
background:url(../images/rnd_plus_icon.png) no-repeat 0 4px;
padding-left:25px;
text-decoration:none;
}
.adCntnr .acco2 .openAd a{
background:url(../images/rnd_minus_icon.png) no-repeat 0 4px ;
padding-left:25px;
color:#333 !important;
text-decoration:none;
}

.adCntnr .acco2 .openAd {
background:url(../images/title_bar_bg.gif) repeat-x ;
line-height:27px;
border-left:1px solid #cfcece;
border-right:1px solid #cfcece;
padding-left:5px;
}

.adCntnr .acco2 .expand a{
color:#676f72;
}

.adCntnr  .accCntnt {
border:1px solid #cfcece;
border-top:none;
padding:10px;
background:#f1f1f1;
}
/* Accordion Styles starts */
