Expandable/Collapsable Text
Hi,
Is there way to create/format text that is expandable and collapsable in sharepoint? Like on technet (e.g. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj200580(v=exchg.150).aspx)

I have used jquery to display list data in accordion format. I then expanded that into a web part that did the same (on-premise). I do agree with the other comments, this increases maintenance costs and risk. We recently started allowing our users to use Apptex which has an accordion feature. http://spapptex.com/ (I am no way associated with Apptex, just use the free version) Hope this info helps.
- Julian KnightSteel ContributorI get a 404 on that link. You have access to JQuery in SharePoint pages so you can use that to create collapsible (accordion) formatting.

I have no experience to jquery in SharePoint. Would have any examples for me?
- Julian KnightSteel ContributorSorry about the delayed response. I'm afraid I'm rather busy at present. Using JQuery with SharePoint isn't that hard and there are plenty of examples of accordions using JQuery. There are various ways to include your JavaScript into SharePoint depending on whether you need to amend one page, a site or more.
