Today I thought that I would put together a simple jQuery folder menu for myself to use in projects to come.  It is easily modified,   easy to create dynamically and easily styled.  The jQuery script portion is rather simple and has been tested on Chrome, FireFox and IE. This is another step in the direction of building a base library of scripts for me to use.

Quick peak at the code:

 <script>  
     $(document).ready(function () {  
       $('[id^="subFolder"]').css("display", "none");  
       $('.TopFolder').css("display", "block");  
       $('[id^="expander"]').click(function () {  
         var id = this.id.replace("expander", "");  
         openHide(id);  
         // Open Parents  
         $(this).parents("ul").css("display", "block");  
       });  
       // Open Hide File Nodes  
       function openHide(id) {  
         // Set Icon  
         $('[id^="expander"]').attr('src', 'images/closed.png');  
         $('#expander' + id).attr('src', 'images/open.png');  
         // Close All - Comment out next 3 lines if you want to open all nodes  
         $('[id^="subFolder"]').css("display", "none");  
         $('.TopFolder').css("display", "block");  
         $('#subFolder' + id).css("display", "block");  
         // Set Selected  
         $('[id^="title"]').removeClass("selected");  
         $('.title').removeClass("selected");  
         $('#title' + id).addClass("selected");  
       }  
       // Click Title Handler - With Sub  
       $('[id^="title"]').click(function () {  
         var id = this.id.replace("title", "");  
         openHide(id);  
         // Open Parents  
         $(this).parents("ul").css("display", "block");  
       });  
       // Click Title - No Sub  
       $('.title').click(function () {  
         // Set Selected  
         $('[id^="title"]').removeClass("selected");  
         $('.title').removeClass("selected");  
         $(this).addClass("selected");  
       });  
     });
