<h3>Forum</h3>

</div>
and this is the Javascript:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
    $(".accordion h3:first").addClass("active");
    $(".accordion p:not(:first)").hide();
    $(".accordion h3").click(function(){
        $(this).next("p").slideToggle("slow")
        .siblings("p:visible").slideUp("slow");
        $(this).toggleClass("active");
        $(this).siblings("h3").removeClass("active");
    });
});
</script>
When I view this in the browser the form is displayed automatically,
how can I hide it until the user presses for the drop down?
Thanks,
S
