JavaScript expanding Collapsing sections or paragraphs

I need to make this attached code below expand and collapse when the title is clicked, as of right now it expands when the title is clicked and it collapses when close is clicked. I have recieved this code that makes it do both, but I am not sure where it is suppose to go in the JavaScript file.


function toggleMe(a){
  var e=document.getElementById(a);
  if(!e)return true;
  if(e.style.display=="none"){
    e.style.display="block"
  } else {
    e.style.display="none"
  }
  return true;
}

below is the javascrpit that works now just doesnt collapse when the title is clicked on

Thank you all I had to do was change the in the HTML code 'show' to 'toggle' and that solved my problem. Now they do both
