Question

I’m using JsTree. Right now, the elements of the tree only expand when the icon NEXT to the parent node is clicked. How can I make it so the tree expands also when the parent node is clicked?

The full list of commands can be found here:http://www.jstree.com/documentation/core
Below is a rough implementation of the close_node and open_node listening to the click event.

.jstree({...}).delegate(".jstree-open>a", "click.jstree", function(event){
    $.jstree._reference(this).close_node(this,false,false);
}).delegate(".jstree-closed>a", "click.jstree", function(event){
    $.jstree._reference(this).open_node(this,false,false);
});
