Overview

This is a very simple plugin that uses Javascript to form a collapsable set of
links in the sidebar for the links (blogroll). Every link corresponding to a
given link category will be expanded.

You can use multiple instances of the widget, each with its own set of options. In this way you could have one set of links for certain categories one place on your page, and another widget with a different set of links somewhere else.

It is based off of the Collapsing Categories and Collapsing Pages plugins.
