I have a simple accordion created using only pure javascript without jQuery and Pure CSS. Everything is functioning correctly, but the problem I am facing is that the first accordion is automatically expanded when the page loads. I have tried various methods using CSS and JS, but none of them seem to work. I am not very proficient in JavaScript, and I attempted to remove the active class on window load, which did remove it, but the accordion still remains expanded. Can someone please assist me with this issue?
// ============== toggle accordion =================//
let header = document.querySelectorAll(".accordion-header");
// ============= get all accoridon header =============//
header.forEach(
(header) => {
header.addEventListener("click", function(e) {
let accordion = document.querySelectorAll(".accordion");
let parentElm = header.parentElement;
let siblings = this.nextElementSibling;
// ============= remove accordion body height ==========//
accordion.forEach((element) => {
element.children[1].style.maxHeight = null;
});
// =========== toggle active class ==============//
parentElm.classList.toggle("active");
if (parentElm.classList.contains("active")) {
// ============== remove active class from all the accordions ===//
accordion.forEach((element) => {
element.classList.remove("active");
});
// ============== toggle active class where we clicked ========//
parentElm.classList.toggle("active");
// ============= set max height ============//
if (siblings.style.maxHeight) {
siblings.style.maxHeight = null;
} else {
siblings.style.maxHeight = siblings.scrollHeight + "px";
}
}
});
}
);
