Via data-* Attributes

Just add data-toggle="collapse" and a data-target to element to automatically assign control of a collapsible element. The data-target attribute accepts a CSS selector to apply the collapse to. Be sure to add the class collapse to the collapsible element. If you'd like it to default open, add the additional class "show".

Example

<button class="btn" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#demo">Collapsible</button>

<div id="demo" class="collapse">
Some text..
</div>
