Collapse

Toggle the visibility of content across your project with a few classes and Bootstrap’s collapse JavaScript plugin.

The collapse JavaScript plugin is used to show and hide content. Buttons or anchors are used as triggers that are mapped to specific elements you toggle. Collapsing an element will animate the height from it’s current value to 0. Given how CSS handles animations, you cannot use padding on a .collapse element. Instead, use the class as an independent wrapping element.

Usage

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

  • .collapse hides content
  • .collapsing is applied during transitions
  • .collapse.show shows content

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

With cards

Using the card component, you can extend the default collapse behavior to create an accordion.

JavaScript behavior

Triggers

Enable an element as a collapsible element manually with:


$('.collapse').collapse()

Options

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

Name Type Default Description
parent selector, jQuery object, DOM element false If parent 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 card class). The attribute has to be set on the target collapsible area.
toggle boolean true Toggles the collapsible element on invocation.

Methods

Method Description
$().collapse('toggle') Toggles a collapsible element to shown or hidden. Returns to the caller before the collapsible element has actually been shown or hidden (i.e. before the shown.bs.collapse or hidden.bs.collapse event occurs).
$().collapse('show') Shows a collapsible element. Returns to the caller before the collapsible element has actually been shown (i.e. before the shown.bs.collapse event occurs).
$().collapse('hide') Hides a collapsible element. Returns to the caller before the collapsible element has actually been hidden (i.e. before the hidden.bs.collapse event occurs).
$().collapse('dispose') Destroys an element’s collapse.

Events

The collapse class exposes a few events for hooking into collapse functionality.

Event Description
show.bs.collapse This event fires immediately when the show instance method is called.
shown.bs.collapse This event is fired when a collapse element has been made visible to the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).
hide.bs.collapse This event is fired immediately when the hide method has been called.
hidden.bs.collapse This event is fired when a collapse element has been hidden from the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).

$('#myCollapsible').on('hidden.bs.collapse', function () {
  // Do something…
});
