JQuery UI Accordion CSS

Question

I plan on using jQuery UI Accordion as well as the default theme

I see that jQuery UI Accordion uses the following classes from this URL link text

<div class="ui-accordion ui-widget ui-helper-reset">
  <h3 class="ui-accordion-header ui-helper-reset ui-state-active ui-corner-top">
    <span class="ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-s"/>
    <a href="#">Section 1</a>
  </h3>
  <div class="ui-accordion-content ui-helper-reset ui-widget-content ui-corner-bottom ui-accordion-content-active">
    Section 1 content
  </div>
  <h3 class="ui-accordion-header ui-helper-reset ui-state-default ui-corner-all">
    <span class="ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-e"/>
    <a href="#">Section 2</a>
  </h3>
  <div class="ui-accordion-content ui-helper-reset ui-widget-content ui-corner-bottom">
    Section 2 content
  </div>
  <h3 class="ui-accordion-header ui-helper-reset ui-state-default ui-corner-all">
    <span class="ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-e"/>
    <a href="#">Section 3</a>
  </h3>
  <div class="ui-accordion-content ui-helper-reset ui-widget-content ui-corner-bottom">
    Section 3 content
  </div>
</div>

I do not want to use all the CSS from the theme file, only those that are needed for the UI Accordion. However, I cannot create the same effect. Who can help?

DEMO: http://so.devilmaycode.it/jquery-ui-accordion-css/

updated to latest jQuery version 10

you do not need to have all this code! you copied a jquery example that explains how jquery creates a full accordion widget!

you just need to have the following:

HTML

<div id="accordion">  
  <h3><a href="#">caption 1</a></h3>  
  <div>some text here    
  </div><h3><a href="#">caption 2</a></h3>  
  <div>some text here    
  </div><h3><a href="#">caption 3</a></h3>  
  <div>some text here    
  </div><h3><a href="#">caption 4</a></h3>  
  <div>some text here    
  </div>
</div>

jQuery / JS

$(function() {
  $("#accordion").accordion();
});

CSS

.ui-accordion .ui-accordion-header {
  cursor: pointer;
  position: relative;
  margin-top: 1px;
  zoom: 1;
}
.ui-accordion .ui-accordion-li-fix {
  display: inline;
}
.ui-accordion .ui-accordion-header-active {
  border-bottom: 0 !important;
}
.ui-accordion .ui-accordion-header a {
  display: block;
  font-size: 1em;
  padding: .5em .5em .5em .7em;
}
/* IE7-/Win - Fix extra vertical space in lists */
.ui-accordion a {
  zoom: 1;
}
.ui-accordion-icons .ui-accordion-header a {
  padding-left: 2.2em;
}
.ui-accordion .ui-accordion-header .ui-icon {
  position: absolute;
  left: .5em;
  top: 50%;
  margin-top: -8px;
}
.ui-accordion .ui-accordion-content {
  padding: 1em 2.2em;
  border-top: 0;
  margin-top: -2px;
  position: relative;
  top: 1px;
  margin-bottom: 2px;
  overflow: auto;
  display: none;
  zoom: 1;
}

  display: block;
}
