If you take a look at my current sidebar (right) and see the heading Google Search you’ll notice that when you click it the Google Search box show’s into view.
Let me show you how this is done.
First make sure that your WordPress site is calling jQuery, buy pluggin this code into our header.php file above the <?php wp_head(); ?> text:
<?php wp_enqueue_script('jquery'); ?> Then anywhere above the </head >, plug this code in:
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
// hides the slickbox as soon as the DOM is ready
jQuery('#toggle-search').hide();
// toggles the slickbox on clicking the noted link
jQuery('a#slick-slidetoggle').click(function() {
jQuery('#toggle-search').slideToggle(400);
return false;
});
});
</script> That’s simple, huh. Okay now lets write the Search code:
<h2><a href="#" id="slick-slidetoggle">Google Search</a></h2>
<div id="toggle-search" style="padding:10px;">
<form method="get" id="search" action="<?php bloginfo('home'); ?>/">
<div>
<input type="text" value="Enter Keyword" >
That’s it.

Is there a way to make this code work with buttons? I can get it to work just fine with a basic link, but I'd like to create a button that toggles...
Thanks!
Love this! But, what I'd like to do is show/hide the div containing the comments on each of my Wordpress posts, on the index.php page, which contains multiple posts. Is there a way to modify the jQuery so that it hides each set of comments? Right now when I try to implement it, each botton (at the bottom of each post) closes just the first set of comments, rather than for the specific post.
Have you ever accomplished that fully without errors?
Thanks a lot! Exactly what I was looking for!!

Thx a lot! I searched in Google for show/hide js script for WP and this is the only one that works perfectly in FF IE and safari...very good job Austin, thumb up!

Hi Austin,
Thanks for posting this, it works like a charm and it's (almost) exactly what I need.
If you don't mind me asking, how could I make it slide from the bottom to the top?
Thanks a lot for your time!
Will this work on any theme? or atleast any standard theme?
