Collapsible BTO product descriptions :D

   Just something I thought I'd share with you guys, to do my part and help out the community.
Alot of the product descriptions for my site are very short, consisting of a small table with processor speed, cache, etc.  Not enough info to make it worth opening a separate window, so I'm adding some collapsible product descriptions and figured there might be some others out there that'd like to do the same.
In your "add BTO item" page, add the code found at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/switchmenu.htm 
It works extremely well.  Just enable product descriptions on your bto product page
Another site I highly recommend is Milonic.com.  They've got an outstanding DHTML menu that allows for images and full blown html, as well as simple web graphics such as directional arrows, etc and some nice gradient backgrounds.  
Take a look at www.alienware.com.  Most or all of their menus and backgrounds are actually from Milonic :p
Thanks!

	Hi thedeacon, Can you post your URL so we can see your implementation? I'd like to see the end result.

	Well, the javascript for collapsible tables no longer works after one of the updates. If I had the time, I could probably still re-enable it though. I'm in the process of a complete redesign, but the site is www.hipepc.com You know the odd thing? Almost nobody orders directly from the site! Almost every order I've received is over the phone or directly from our warehouse, which boggles my mind :p http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22hipe+pc%22 We've received so much press lately that I haven't had time to get things looking the way I originally intended, but it at least is working :)
