# Jquery collapsing menu edit

 * I have a small jquery part in my footer to open and collapse the menu.
 * if(jQuery(‘.current-menu-ancestor’).length == 0) {
    jQuery(‘.sub-menu’).hide();}
   jQuery(‘.sub-menu’).closest(‘.menu-item’).children(‘a’).click(function(e){ jQuery(
   this).parent(‘.menu-item’).children(‘.sub-menu’).slideToggle(); e.preventDefault();})
 * However it only opens and displays the subitems. Is there an easy way to make
   sure the menu both unfolds and shows the subitems and show the parent item that
   was clicked?
 * I have virtually no experience using Jquery so any help is appreciated
