How do I create a collapsible list in a layer?

How can I create a collapsible list out of text in a lyer in a .dwt file?
Tried many was as instructed in the online help, only in vain. After I tried
for several times, I could not see "list property" when I right-clicked a
word on a top level. I really appreciate your help.

You would have to use CSS (display:none), and some javascript for this.

What instructions were you following?

Hi Murray,

I was following the online help "how to create a collapsible list", but
never worked. I tried to create am embedded CSS via Format-Style. After a
few attempts, <p.css> shows up if I highlighted the top level word. Do I
need to insert a Java script? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Those directions seemed to work for me. I enter the list. Then I select
FORMAT | Bullets and Numbering, and enable collapsible lists. This gives me
the following code -

<ul dynamicoutline initcollapsed>
<li>This is the top level<ul>

If you don't have that dynamicoutline initcollapsed there, you have not done
it properly.

Thanks. Before you went through the process, did you change the style to
CSS? I followed the specific directions for Front Page 2003, which should
not be complicated, and several times. The code after the I worked shows <p>
instead <l> so the listing, it appears, never worked.
