I have a fully working JQuery accordion except for the fact that I want to have the ability to have all the sections open. To achieve this an user must be able to open a section without the other one's collapsing.
This is a bit counterintuitive, but a real-life accordion can also be expanded to it's full extend.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#accordion").accordion({
heightStyle: 'content',
collapsible: true,
toggle: false
});
});<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.0/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">
<div id="accordion">

<h3>Section 2</h3>
<div>

<h3>Section 3</h3>

<h3>Section 4</h3>

How would I achieve this?
Try this:
var headers = $('#accordion .accordion-header');
var contentAreas = $('#accordion .ui-accordion-content ').hide();
var expandLink = $('.accordion-expand-all');
// add the accordion functionality
headers.click(function() {
var panel = $(this).next();
var isOpen = panel.is(':visible');
// open or close as necessary
panel[isOpen? 'slideUp': 'slideDown']()
// trigger the correct custom event
.trigger(isOpen? 'hide': 'show');
// stop the link from causing a pagescroll
return false;
});
// hook up the expand/collapse all
expandLink.click(function(){
$(".ui-accordion-content").show();
});body {
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", "Helvetica", "Arial", "Verdana", "sans-serif";
font-size: 62.5%;
}
.accordion-expand-holder {
text-align: center;
padding: 10px;
