[JavaScript] JS div to remain visible

[Laurent Muchacho]

Hi Alan,

The only way I know how to do this is by passing the value of which link as
been pass through the querystring.
I explain

on your link <a href="page2.asp?divClicked=name_or_id_of_your_div">Page2</a>
 
after on the next page you either use ASP or Javascript to get the value
from the querystring and populate a variable with the value

ASP
var myVariable = <%=request.querystring("divClicked")%>;

Javascript
var myVariable = QueryString('divClicked');
this is the js function to get the querystring value
function QueryString(param){
	var loca = document.location.href;
	if(loca.indexOf('?' + param + '=')>-1 || loca.indexOf('&' + param +
'=')>-1){
		var qString = loca.split('?');
		var keyVal = qString[1].split('&');
		for(var i=0;i<keyVal.length;i++){
			if(keyVal[i].indexOf(param + '=')==0){
				var val = keyVal[i].split('=');
				return val[1];
			}
		}
		return false;
	}else{
		return false;
	}
};


then when the page load (I mean on the onload of the body like
onload="toggle('myVariable ')") you can simply call your function 

et voila 

Laurent

ps: I attached your file back with solution implemented unfornetely it will
remenber only the one you had click at the end

Subject: [Javascript] JS div to remain visible


Hello People,

I am in need of some help.

I have a html page that has some div tags on. When you click each div tag, 
it toggles a table of links below it in another div tag to be either visible

or hidden.

Now the problem I have it that when I click on one of the links in the table

that has been made visible, it goes to a page with the exact same navigation

structure on it, but I would like the table that was made visible to remain 
visible.

Is there some way I can check to see which div tag has been made visible as 
I go to the link. I have attached the html file so you can see what I am 
doing.

Any ideas or help would be grateful.

Thanks,

Alan...
