Question

so I am have some divs set up with a toggle function, and I want the first to be toggled visible on page load, what is the best way to do this? Thanks

$('.paneltop').click( function(){
    $(this).next('div').animate(
    {'height':"toggle"});
    $(this).toggleClass('openpane')

You can use jQuery.toggle along with .ready().
It should look like this:

$(document).ready(function(){
  $(".paneltop").next("div").toggle();
});

Note: if you want it to be open, you can use .show() instead of .toggle().
