How to display ALL child-topics of parent-topics

[7137229177]

I want the Tree Menu will expand all of sub-topic by default. So when the visitors visit my page, then they don't have to click into plus sign (+) to expand the sub-topic under a topic.

I am a newbie, and don't know much about language programming. Would you please help me to re-write the code to display the expansion of sub-topics under a parent topic?

And here is the Tree Menu javascript file (download link from Mediafire).

And the result will be like in picture:

Thank you very much, and I'm appreciate your support.

there are a number of things to consider.
1. what library (if any) are you using to render the tree and it's behavior?
2. how much data could potentially be returned? the larger the dataset the less your request/requirement is practical
3. how are the items being rendered? DOM minipulation, or remote ajax calls

Then there is the question 'what do you hope to gain by expanding all nodes by default?'. Maybe a tree isn't the optimal UI widget. maybe an alternate search mechanism would better suite your needs.

being that this is your first post and you are not a programmer, I would suggest contracting a programmer in your local area.
