How to get dropdown menu to open/close on click rather than hover?

Question

I am very new to javascript and ajax/jquery and have been working on trying to get a script to open and close the drop menu on click rather that hover.

Answer 1

if you need two functions for a click event, try .toggle

i'm using this:

$('.triggerlist').toggle(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
  $(this).find('ul').fadeIn();
    },function() {
  $(this).find('ul').fadeOut();
    });

Which allows me to do more stuff on the 2 functions than just the .click with its 1 function.
