Is this a good idea?
Basically, I am trying to save space on my site, I have a template that has collapsable columns, works great. Now, there are some pages that have modules in the columns, I think they should be there by default, but, lets say a regular site visitor decideds that they would like to temporarily collapse the left column for instance, maybe they are in the forum and don't want the user poll that I may have decided to keep in the left column. They just click a button and it collapses.
I think this would be awesome for the user, its all giving them that little bit more interaction with the site.
Would love to hear peoples views, I am no expert user so I imagine that this idea will get blown out of the water, I dont know, maybe it has been done before with j!
Thanks

That does sounds like an awesome idea. This should be able to be implemented using Javascript and having some action that would hide the div tag for the left column. I have never done it, but I think it just might work!

As additional, I think the template use moofx script for that module collapse feature.
Nice Implemetation

Re: Is this a good idea?
I couldn't find anything on the JA template, maybe there is an issue with my browser (firefox on the mac), the other link was awesome though, I am going to try and implement it this afternoon. With the JA template, can you point to the effect in action.
Thanks.
Thanks.
