hello i have been searching the internet desperately but can't find the answer maybe its not possible, this is the issue:
i send out a newsletter email and want to have show/hide functionality (for some articles as the email looks a bit cluttered)however i can only find java scripts that will do this and java doesn't seem to work in email html. is it possible to do what i want perhaps using css as i've read css might work in emails.
is there any workaround at all to achieve what i want? Thanks for reading.

So, which are we taking about? Javascript or Java? Either way, no dice in your email client.
Why not use a simplified newsletter and invite them to "... read more" at the end that continues the story on a web page. Almost every newsletter I've ever received was like this.

If it looks cluttered, redesign it.

thanks for your prompt
thanks for your prompt replies and suggestions. sorry but the newsletter is actually a news bulletin with short event details that i run at my university.
so having links to a webpage is not practical as only a small bit of extra text will be displayed.
the reason i want to have show/hide is because we cover lots of different types of events so rather than overload the reader with details of every event, i wanted to give them a choice of what to read further. show/hide seems ideal to me, but i take on your idea Tyssen maybe a redesign may help.
