Yep, I would probably use a cookie. My toggled section class may be more what you are looking for. It uses cookies to remember hide/show status. It uses a cookie class I threw together.

This looks great, thanks for posting it. What changes could you make to this code to allow the hide/show status to be persistent? Could a cookie be created to remember the status and somehow the next time a user came to the same page the status of hidden/shown would be read from the cookie? Would you mind adding that if you know how? Perhaps a callback could be sent into the constructor with a function that sets the starting status?

I’m liking having my javascript in subversion too. Anytime I make changes I just paste the whole thing in with the version update and boom it’s ready for the whole world. Works out pretty nice.

Looks pretty nice and it seems like a more versatile and extensible way of doing this kind behavior then some of the ways I’ve done this in the past. I’ll be sure to keep this script in mind. I also like you are keeping your javascript in a subversion repository.
