[jQuery] JQuery .slideToggle help!


Hey Everyone
I am new to the world of JQuery and having a bit of a problem with the
Toggle effect. Here is the code that i am using:
<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){
        $(".button").click(function(){
         $("#panel").slideToggle("normal");
    });
});
</script>
So from my understanding just to make sure that i am looking at this
right, any button that i want to use the effect i give it the
class="button" which then makes the id="panel" slide, is that correct?
The main problem i have is, i want to have this effect on a few
sections on my website, for instance when someone clicks on the button
of a news item it reveals more of that news story, but i can't get
this to work using class selector, so i wondered if there is any
additional info that i need to know??
Thanks for any help with this, as it is driving me crazy!!
