How can I get the links in a Dreamweaver spry accordion tab to work?

Asked by tprofits in JavaScript, Macromedia Dreamweaver

Tags: , , ,

I am using a Dreamweaver CS3 spry accordion.  Dreamweaver CS3 adds a javascript page called SpryAccordion.js (version 1.6.1).  I have four links in the tabs of the accordion.  I believe the SpryAccordion.js script is disabling the links.  When the user clicks on any of the links the accordion expands or collapses, but the links never work.

My goal is to get the links to work.  When the links are clicked the accordion should neither expand or collapse.

I saw a previous response on a similar issue, but simply commenting out the (e.preventDefault) and (e.stopPropagation) does not seem to work.Start Free Trial
