16.9.5 Configuring drop-down blocks

To specify whether clicking inside an open drop-down block should close the block:

[DropDowns]
; ClickBlockToClose = Yes (default)
;  or No (use if any links inside block)
ClickBlockToClose = Yes

If any of your drop-down blocks contain links, set ClickBlockToClose=No.

To change the code for creating drop-down blocks, include the following settings to redefine the built-in macros:

[DropDowns]
DropBlockStart = <div class="<$DropClass>" id="<$$_DropID>"
  style="display:none;" <$DropDivAttr>>\n
; If ClickBlockToClose=No, this is omitted:
DropDivAttr = onclick="noSection('<$$_DropID>')"
DropBlockEnd = </div>\n

Each setting must be all on one line in your configuration file, even if it does not look that way here. Ordinarily you should not need to include these settings.
