Question

I love this widget in google closure,
Zippy
and I need an equevalent in jquery. I’m pretty sure there is one.
I found Accordion in jquery UI, but it is not the same behaviour.
Unlike Accordion, which organizes a set of chunks and shows only one at a time, Zippy targets one chunk and toggles its visibility.

You can easily make your own plugin for such a simple task :

(function($) {
    $.fn.zippy = function(options) {
        var o = $.extend({}, options, $.fn.zippy.defaults);
        return this.each(function(i,el) {
            var $el = $(el),
                content = $el.find('p'),
                title = $el.find('h2');

            title.toggle(function() {
                content.slideToggle(o.duration, o.easing, o.callback);
            });
        });
    };
    $.fn.zippy.defaults = {
        easing : 'swing',
        duration : 500,
        callback : function(){}
    };
})(jQuery)

Here’s a working demo.
