**Bootstrap Reference Documentation** 
This is a part of the reference documentation from <a href="http://getbootstrap.com">Bootstrap</a>. 
It is included here to demonstrate rendering with Material Design for Bootstrap default styling. 
See the <a href="/material-design/buttons">Material Design</a> section for more elements and customization options.

The Bootstrap collapse plugin allows you to toggle content on your pages with a bit of JavaScript and some classes. Flexible plugin that utilizes a handful of classes (from the **required [transitions plugin]({{ site.baseurl }}/components/transitions/)**) for easy toggle behavior.

## Contents

* Will be replaced with the ToC, excluding the "Contents" header
{:toc}

## Example

Click the buttons below to show and hide another element via class changes:

- `.collapse` hides content
- `.collapsing` is applied during transitions
- `.collapse.in` shows content

You can use a link with the `href` attribute, or a button with the `data-target` attribute. In both cases, the `data-toggle="collapse"` is required.

{% example html %}
<p>
  <a class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapseExample" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapseExample">
    Link with href
  </a>
  <button class="btn btn-primary" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#collapseExample" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapseExample">
    Button with data-target
  </button>
</p>
<div class="collapse" id="collapseExample">
  <div class="card card-block">
    Anim pariatur cliche reprehenderit, enim eiusmod high life accusamus terry richardson ad squid. Nihil anim keffiyeh helvetica, craft beer labore wes anderson cred nesciunt sapiente ea proident.
  </div>
</div>
{% endexample %}

## Accordion example

Extend the default collapse behavior to create an accordion.

{% example html %}
<div id="accordion" role="tablist" aria-multiselectable="true">
  <div class="panel panel-default">
    <div class="panel-heading" role="tab" id="headingOne">
      <h4 class="panel-title">
        <a data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapseOne" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseOne">
          Collapsible Group Item #1
        </a>
      </h4>
    </div>
    <div id="collapseOne" class="panel-collapse collapse in" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="headingOne">
      Anim pariatur cliche reprehenderit, enim eiusmod high life accusamus terry richardson ad squid. 3 wolf moon officia aute, non cupidatat skateboard dolor brunch.

    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="panel panel-default">
    <div class="panel-heading" role="tab" id="headingTwo">
      <h4 class="panel-title">
        <a class="collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapseTwo" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapseTwo">
          Collapsible Group Item #2
        </a>
      </h4>
    </div>
    <div id="collapseTwo" class="panel-collapse collapse" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="headingTwo">

## Accessibility

Be sure to add `aria-expanded` to the control element. This attribute explicitly defines the current state of the collapsible element to screen readers and similar assistive technologies. If the collapsible element is closed by default, it should have a value of `aria-expanded="false"`. If you've set the collapsible element to be open by default using the `in` class, set `aria-expanded="true"` on the control instead. The plugin will automatically toggle this attribute based on whether or not the collapsible element has been opened or closed.

Additionally, if your control element is targetting a single collapsible element – i.e. the `data-target` attribute is pointing to an `id` selector – you may add an additional `aria-controls` attribute to the control element, containing the `id` of the collapsible element. Modern screen readers and similar assistive technologies make use of this attribute to provide users with additional shortcuts to navigate directly to the collapsible element itself.

## Usage

The collapse plugin utilizes a few classes to handle the heavy lifting:

- `.collapse` hides the content
- `.collapse.in` shows the content
- `.collapsing` is added when the transition starts, and removed when it finishes

These classes can be found in `_animation.scss`.

### Via data attributes

Just add `data-toggle="collapse"` and a `data-target` to the element to automatically assign control of a collapsible element. The `data-target` attribute accepts a CSS selector to apply the collapse to. Be sure to add the class `collapse` to the collapsible element. If you'd like it to default open, add the additional class `in`.

To add accordion-like group management to a collapsible control, add the data attribute `data-parent="#selector"`. Refer to the demo to see this in action.

### Via JavaScript

Enable manually with:

{% highlight js %}
$('.collapse').collapse()
{% endhighlight %}

### Options

Options can be passed via data attributes or JavaScript. For data attributes, append the option name to `data-`, as in `data-parent=""`.

<div class="table-responsive">
  <table class="table table-bordered table-striped">
    <thead>
     <tr>
       <th style="width: 100px;">Name</th>
       <th style="width: 50px;">Type</th>
       <th style="width: 50px;">Default</th>
       <th>Description</th>
     </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
     <tr>
       <td>parent</td>
       <td>selector</td>
       <td>false</td>
       <td>If a selector is provided, then all collapsible elements under the specified parent will be closed when this collapsible item is shown. (similar to traditional accordion behavior - this is dependent on the <code>panel</code> class)</td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td>toggle</td>
       <td>boolean</td>
       <td>true</td>
       <td>Toggles the collapsible element on invocation</td>
     </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>
</div>

### Methods

#### `.collapse(options)`

})
{% endhighlight %}

#### `.collapse('toggle')`

Toggles a collapsible element to shown or hidden.

#### `.collapse('show')`

Shows a collapsible element.

#### `.collapse('hide')`

Hides a collapsible element.

### Events

Bootstrap's collapse class exposes a few events for hooking into collapse functionality.

<div class="table-responsive">
  <table class="table table-bordered table-striped">
    <thead>
     <tr>
       <th style="width: 150px;">Event Type</th>
       <th>Description</th>
     </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
     <tr>
       <td>show.bs.collapse</td>
       <td>This event fires immediately when the <code>show</code> instance method is called.</td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td>shown.bs.collapse</td>
       <td>This event is fired when a collapse element has been made visible to the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).</td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td>hide.bs.collapse</td>
       <td>
        This event is fired immediately when the <code>hide</code> method has been called.
       </td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td>hidden.bs.collapse</td>
       <td>This event is fired when a collapse element has been hidden from the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).</td>
     </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>
</div>

{% highlight js %}
$('#myCollapsible').on('hidden.bs.collapse', function () {
  // do something…
})
{% endhighlight %}
