Collapsing an element in vBulletin, but displaying element in collapsed state first

[sparklywater]

By default, a collapsible element shows up in the uncollapsed / open state first, and then the collapse button needs to be clicked before it is collapsed. However I need this to be reversed such that the block is already collapsed when the page is first viewed, but can be opened by clicking on the collapse control / button.

How can I do this?

hook : global_start

$vbcollapse['collapseimg_[OBJECT_NAME]'] = '_collapsed';

$vbcollapse['collapseobj_[OBJECT NAME]'] = 'display:none;';

thanks, I'll give that a try

Please be aware that users that have JS turned off, will never be able to expand. (which is also the reason default vB will never collapse by default)
