if its reloads the page after it expands or collapses, then you can use php, if not, DHTML is the way to go.

that picture no longer works thanks to disabling hot linking =)

http://dbworlds.darkuniverse.net check out my site for DB it is still being worked on but i think i got a good start the only thing that works so far is the Forums link clicking on any other link will just take you right back to the main page.

isn't DHTML just using Javascript(or VBS) with HTML or something like that?

Why not just download the javascript file from the website and view its source code in notepad?
