wijexpander Step 1 of 3: Setting up the View

In this step, you'll begin by setting up the view. You'll add content to the expander that will be displayed when the widget is expanded.

Note: This step assumes that you have created an MVC Classic project. See the Creating an MVC Classic Project topicfor more information.

Complete the following steps:

Navigate to the Solution Explorer, expand the Shared folder inside the Views folder, and double-click _Layout to open the file.

Add the following markup within the <body> tags of the page, just after @RenderBody():

 <div id="expander">
    <h3>Header</h3>
    <div>
    Vestibulum ut eros non enim commodo hendrerit. Donec porttitor tellus non magna.  Nam ligula elit, pretium et,

 rutrum non, hendrerit id, ante. Nunc mauris sapien, cursus in.
    </div>
</div>

This markup will add the expander content to the page. In this step, you created the View. In the next step, wijexpander Step 2 of 3: Initializing the Widget, you'll add script to initialize the widget.
