Fair enough. I didn't assume the questioner wanted folksonomy.For task steps, I'd use an inline graphic.For reference icon definitions, I'd show the icon and use the formal term. Educate! :-)David[DCA:d.a.d.]

âdisclosure widgetâ is a programming term tho: I wouldnât use, because the average person would have no idea what its referring to. Ie âClick the disclosure widgetâ would leave users lost; whereas âclick the expand/collapse arrowâ is pretty
easy to figure out.

Please see image here:

When you click the little triangle, it expands or contracts the group.
There is one expanded one and below it are four that have not been expanded.

So, do these little triangles have a name?

Thanks,

Bob
