linking to an accordion

Hey Ray

How would I go about linking from a page to another page that has an accordion and force the accordion to open a specific panel?

eg hwo would I link to and open the accordion panel with the title 'maps' on this page https://goo.gl/Joq1NZ?

Cheers

Jamie

You would have to look up how to do that with the accordion you use. (Jquery?)

There should be a way to set the default panel, and then from there you could make it dynamically set through a url parameter you pass into the page.

It looks like the accordion has an "active" property to set the active window... so:

Initialize a accordion with the active option specified.

$( ".selector" ).accordion({ active: 2 });

would set the second value to the active one. You could pass that value in through the url and write it dynamically with <?php echo(); ?> like:

php:
$( ".selector" ).accordion({ active: <?php echo(isset($_GET['active']?$_GET['active']:"1")); ?> });
