Template:Collapsible list
 | This template uses Lua: |
This template produces a collapsible list. It is possible to set CSS styles for the "frame" (the <div>...</div> tags surrounding the list), for the list title, and for the list items. The template supports an unlimited number of list items.
This template is typically used in infoboxes and navboxes; it should not normally be used in regular article content, per MOS:DONTHIDE.

| expand =
| framestyle =
| titlestyle =
| title =
| liststyle =
| hlist =
| bullets =
| <!-- 1 = --> <!--(First item in list; the "1 =" is usually not required)-->

}}
Parameters
| expand | Any text in this parameter (including "no") sets the list's default state to expanded rather than collapsed. Omit the parameter or leave it blank to set the default state to collapsed. |
| framestyle | Custom CSS styling applied the template overall (title and list). |
| titlestyle | Custom CSS styling applied to the title. |
| title | The list's title (always on view beside the list's [show/hide] link). |
| liststyle | Custom CSS styling applied to the list (specifically, to the <ul>...</ul> tags delimiting the list). |
| hlist | Include as |hlist=on, |hlist=true, etc to produce a horizontal rather than vertical list. |
| bullets | Include as |bullets=on, |bullets=true, etc to place a bullet point before each list item. |
| Unnamed parameters (first, second, third...) | The list items (in the order in which they will appear). If none are supplied, the template outputs nothing. |
