jQuery UI Example - Accordion
Display collapsible content panels for information that utilizes limited space.
For more details about the accordion widget, please refer to the API documentation Accordion Widget.
Default Functionality
Click the headers to expand/collapse the content sections, similar to tabs. You can optionally set whether sections should toggle open/close on mouse hover.
The basic HTML markup consists of a series of headers (H3 tags) and content divs, making the content accessible without JavaScript.

## Collapsible Content
By default, accordions always keep one section open. To make every section collapsible, set the `collapsible` option to true. Click the currently open section to collapse its content pane.

Custom Icons
Customize the icons for the header of the accordion with the icons option, which accepts classes for the header's default and active (open) state. Use any class from the UI CSS framework, or create a custom class with background images.

## Fill Space
Since the accordion is made up of block-level elements, by default its width will expand to fill its parent container. To fill the vertical space assigned by the parent, set the `heightStyle` option to `"fill"`, and the script will automatically set the accordion's dimensions to the height of its parent container.

Open on Hover
Clicking on the headers expands/collapses the sections of content, dividing them into logical sections like tabs. You can optionally set whether switching the open/close state of each section on mouse hover.
The basic HTML markup is a series of headers (H3 tags) and content divs, so the content is accessible without JavaScript.
