How to collapse all with a toggle

Rails
1

Hey all,

I have a loop that kind of looks like this:

<% for item in @items %>
<% item.id
%>
<%= link_to_remote ‘show other ids’, :url=>{:action=>showall} %>

<%end%>

What I want to do is when “show other ids” is clicked, the content of
each span is showed (eg. with a toggle) except for the span that goes
with the link that’s been clicked.
any idea how to do this?

Thanx in advance

In the end, the answer will be a combination of RJS and CSS. In terms
of
what exactly that needs to look like, I’m not grokking what you want it
to
look like initially. Right now what you have above will show a bunch of
rows where each row is a link that says ‘show other ids’. And that’s
all.
More info needed to assist.

Best regards,

what is display is:
(item.id) ‘show other ids’
with item.id being hidden.

let’s say I have:
(1) ‘show other ids’
(2) ‘show other ids’
(3) ‘show other ids’

now if I click on the second ‘show other ids’, then it will change the
rows to:
1 ‘show other ids’
(2) ‘show other ids’
3 ‘show other ids’

with 1 and 3 visible and 2 still hidden. See what I mean?

thanx in advance
