Need Help on Cookie-based Toggle Menu

I've written a cookie-based toggle show/hide menu. It remembers what was open/closed using the jQuery cookie plugin. It exactly works fine; the only problem is I have to add different script for each menu. So each menu has its own script.

This is the code so far:

jQuery

$(document).ready(function() {
var panel = $("#f1_fold");
var button = $("#f1_fold_i");
var initialState = "expanded";
var activeClass = "hidden";
var visibleText = "<img src='html/sys-img/min.gif' alt='-' />";
var hiddenText = "<img src='html/sys-img/plus.gif' alt='+' />";


if($.cookie("panelState1") == undefined) {
    $.cookie("panelState1", initialState);
}
var state = $.cookie("panelState1");
if(state == "collapsed") {
    panel.hide();
    button.html(hiddenText);
    button.addClass(activeClass);
}

button.click(function(){
    if($.cookie("panelState1") == "expanded") {
        $.cookie("panelState1", "collapsed");
        button.html(hiddenText);
        button.addClass(activeClass);
    } else {
        $.cookie("panelState1", "expanded");
        button.html(visibleText);
        button.removeClass(activeClass);
    }
    panel.slideToggle("1000");
    return false;
});
});

And here is the HTML snippet

<div class="tableborder"> 
      <div class='maintitle'> 
      <div style='float: right; width: auto !important; padding-right: 6px; padding-left: 3px;'><a id='f1_fold_i' id='1' href='#' style='vertical-align:middle; border:0px solid #000; cursor:pointer;' /><img src='html/sys-img/min.gif' alt='-' /></a></div> 
<div><img src='style_images/1/nav_m.gif' border='0'  alt='&gt;' width='8' height='8' />&nbsp;<a href="index.php?c=1">Gotei 13</a></div> 
</div> 
      <span id='f1_fold' style='display:;'> 
      <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4">  
        <tr>
          <th align="left" colspan="2" width="59%" class='titlemedium'>Forum</th> 
          <th align="right" width="14%" class='titlemedium'>Stats</th> 
          <th align="left" width开发者_如何转开发="25%" class='titlemedium'>Last Post Info</th> 
        </tr> 
<tr> 
          <td class="row4" align="center"><img src='subnonew.gif' border='0'  alt='No New Posts' /></td>   
          <td class="row4"><b class="dtitle"><a href="index.php?showforum=1">Rules &amp; Announcement Board</a></b><br /><span class="desc">Pengumuman, panduan, dan peraturan forum dipajang di sini. Baru daftar? Yuk tengok dulu sebelum posting~<br /></span></td> 
          <td class="row2" align="right">58 Topics <br />1410 Replies</td> 
          <td class="row2" nowrap="nowrap"> 
<a href='index.php?showtopic=2069&amp;view=getlastpost' title='Go to last post'><img src='http://209.85.62.23/style_images/1/lastpost.gif' border='0'  alt='Last Post' /></a>

        </tr> </table></span><table width="100%"><tr> 
          <td class='darkrow2' colspan="5">&nbsp;</td> 
        </tr> 
      </table> 

    </div> 

Notice that I have to add different script for each menu because it depends on the f1_fold and f1_fold_i css ID. For the other menu, it would be f2_fold and f2_fold_i. For the other, it'd be f3_fold and f3_fold_i. Etc.

Also, to make the cookie remembers which menu is collapsed and which menu is opened, it also depends on the panelState1 (for 1st menu), panelState2 (for the 2nd), panelState3, etc

Is there any way to make this shorter and more flexible? So I don't have to add different variable

If you wrap each menu in a div with a class of 'menuWrapper' (or something similar) and then used jQuery's 'each' function, you could execute a function on each of your menus. Change your 'xf_fold' and 'xf_fold_i' ids to 'f_fold' and 'f_fold_i' classes. Then, in the function that runs on each menu item, you can select them based on class. Something like this fiddle could do the trick.

Update

Here's a new fiddle demonstrating a cookie based selected item remembering solution.

After a year, though not achieving exactly what I meant, I found that using the collapsible jQuery plugin is more practical.
