Making a sidebar collapsible

[cc8balla]

Hi guys, I am currently using Ultimate Side Columns, and what I was wanting is to be able to use Javascript to hide the column on command and bring it back. Similar to the sidebar on Webmaster's Help. (http://www.webmastershelp.com) I know the code I need to do (I think, my Java skills arent where they need to be) but I cannot figure out what template to edit, if any template at all.

Any help, or a prod in the right direction, would be awesome. Thanks!

I've tried and tried and tried, and I cannot get this to work the way I want. Is there ANYONE willing to help?

This is a better slide menu and u can edit the setting quite easy.

I played with this one for quite a while on my Test forum. I couldn't get it to work with a sidebar that is on the right, like mine, and dosen't look good at all on my forum. Great coding, just not what I am looking for.

Also, I have gotten ahold of the admin there, and I think that skin is custom, and they dont want to give it away, similar to vb.org. Completely understandable though.

have u got a sidebar that works on your board ? Now this is what u want to members to be able to turn off.If so there may be a way but i cant help with it but heres the idea.
Have sidebar on by default and if member(s) dont want it then have a new profile field where they tick a box to enable the sidebar or disable the sidebar.
You just need someone to give you the code on how to do it.
