description = "Expandable/collapsible sections of text"
title = "Expand"
+++

The `expand` shortcode displays an expandable/collapsible section of text.

{{% expand title="Expand me..." %}}Thank you!

That's some text with a footnote[^1]

[^1]: And that's the footnote.

That's some more text with a footnote.[^someid]

[^someid]:
    Anything of interest goes here.

    Blue light glows blue.
{{% /expand %}}

{{% notice note %}}
This only works in modern browsers flawlessly. While Internet Explorer 11 has issues in displaying it, the functionality still works.
{{% /notice %}}

## Usage

While the examples are using shortcodes with named parameter you are free to use positional as well or also call this shortcode from your own partials.

{{< tabs groupId="shortcode-parameter">}}
{{% tab title="shortcode" %}}

````go
{{%/* expand title="Expand me..." */%}}Thank you!{{%/* /expand */%}}
````

{{% /tab %}}
{{% tab title="shortcode (positional)" %}}

````go
{{%/* expand "Expand me..." */%}}Thank you!{{%/* /expand */%}}
````

{{% /tab %}}
{{% tab title="partial" %}}

````go
{{ partial "shortcodes/expand.html" (dict
  "context" .
  "title" "Expand me..."
  "content" "Thank you!"
)}}
````

{{% /tab %}}
{{< /tabs >}}
