    Does anyone know if there is a way to get the functionality without having to use the custom javascript?  I'm trying to build a request process workflow and would like to have a collapsible section for each part of the process (software, hardware, system access, etc).  My dilemma with the javascript is that this is going to become a mess with all of the fields.  Could have swore there was a component that allowed this functionality that I've seen in the past.  Using Workflow 7.5 SP1.

    You could use the javascript to just hide panels instead of the fields.  There was a element that I believe was intended to do something like this, but has since become obsolete/deprecated (and I never got it to work properly anyway), and in 7.6 i can't even find it anymore.  I assume it was finally just removed altogether (I can't recall the name of it either).

    If nobody can help with a simpler solution, I could probably help clean up that javascript code (i've gotten marginally better with js since I wrote that article) and apply it to panels as needed if you decide you have to go that route.

    Thanks africo.  I still have to meet with those that do the actual process that I'm trying to automate and get all the details.  Just trying to get some ideas of how the form could work and pitch them that way I don't present something and have to make a ton of changes later just because someone doesn't like how it works.  Thanks again and I'll let you know if I need your help.
