Re: nom om

Paper is much better than a computer, because if you write something on the paper (with ballpoint pen) you just can't erase it. Unlike if you use computer and you can just delete it :( Hdd's should have some kind of printer to save all the data, so it would be much safer.

I think expand/collapse is the thing you are looking for. Simply it could be done with javascript changing div-elements display to none/block, you can't hide a table or just rows or cells I guess.
