This is a very good sample for two layers tree. Could you show me how to display multiple layers for expend/collapse? what do I need to change on java script and html?
for example I want to be able to display at least three layers of expend/collapse.

I’m displaying multiple html tables, all static with no calls to a database. Example is great for single table, can you provide example for multiple tables. I’m very new to this and just learning but presuming a variable counter might be needed for the hideShowDiv or the label?
