two tags means, you have another pageblocksections. Isn't it?

 

Then you have toanother two statements in twistssection function,

 

function dotest() {
twistSection(document.getElementById('thePage:TheForm:block:CollapseDefault').childNodes[0].childNodes[0]);
twistSection(document.getElementById('thePage:TheForm:block:CollapseDefault2').childNodes[0].childNodes[0]);
}

 Hi,

 

This is working perfectly.

 

Bu I have one more issue.

 

I have multiple page block section on vf page.

your solution is working perfectly when the page loaded all the pageblocksections are collapsed but when I expanded the particular page block section manually and did enter or modified some data on the form and hit on save again the page block section is collapsed which shouldn’t be.

 

 In my case modified data page block should be expanded again when i hit on save button and remaining should page block sections should be collapsed.

 

Do you have any an idea on this.

 

Thank you,

Chamil MadusankaChamil Madusanka

That's because your button doesn't have any rerendering. It will cause to refresh whole page. Our javascript code is run in page load. So add the rerender attribute to the command button and rerender your particular pageblock section.
