Accordion Widget
Accordion Widget
Accordion Widget can be used to display text in a collapsed, organized and convenient manner. Accordions are generally used to break content into multiple sections. By using Accordion, you save space without truncating the content. By default, only titles of the content are displayed, a user has to click on the title to open/expand the hidden text or content. For example, an Accordion is a great way to display FAQ, since it allows the user to quickly and easily browse your FAQ topics (titles) without much scrolling.
