In this video we will discuss creating an accordion with arrows using bootstrap.
Bootstrap tutorial for beginners
When an accordion panel is expanded, an arrow pointing upwards should be displayed indicating that if we click again the panel will collapse. Along the same lines, a downward pointing arrow should be displayed when the panel is collapsed, indicating that panel will be expanded if we click on it again. We will be using the Bootstrap Glyphicons to achieve this.
If you want plus and minus icons instead of UP and DOWN arrows, replace the <span> elements with glyphicon-minus-sign and glyphicon-plus-sign
We also need to change the jQuery code as shown below
With the above 2 simple changes, the accordion looks as shown below.
