[Chameleon] Preserving open/close status between page loading

[Mariette]

Greetings,
I have expanding/collapsing Javascript HTML legend and my issue is
preserving its expander status (whether layers are open ”expanded” or closed
“not expanded”) between page loads. 
The following is the code in my HTML document;
The hidden variable
<input type="hidden" name="ExpanderStatus" value="[$ExpanderStatus|$]">
 and the legend 
 <cwc2 type="LegendTemplate" visible="true" embedded="true"
popupstyleresource="TextButtons" template="legend_template.html" 
enabled="true" popupwidth="500" popupheight="400" status="false"
menubar="false">
 <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
  goExpanderManager.formElement = document.forms[0].ExpanderStatus;
   goExpanderManager.initialize();
 </script></cwc2>
 I am using jsExpander.css and jsExpander.js which can be found at this
posting
http://lists.maptools.org/pipermail/chameleon/2004-October/001458.html
 Here is my Legend Template
 [leg_group_html]
            <div class="cssClickable cssExpander cssGroup"
id="[leg_group_name]" onclick="this.expander.toggle()">
            <script langauge="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
                        oGroup = new cExpander( CWCDHTML_GetLayer(
'[leg_group_name]', true ));
                        goExpanderManager.add( oGroup );
            </script>
            [leg_group_name]
            <img

border="0" style="margin-top: 2px;">
            </div>

 [leg_layer_html order=ascending opt_flag=15]
            <div class="cssClickable cssExpander cssLayer"
id="[leg_layer_name]" style="display:none">
            <script langauge="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
                        oLayer = new cExpander( CWCDHTML_GetLayer(
'[leg_layer_name]', true ));
                        oGroup.addElement( oLayer );
            </script>
            <input type="radio" name="my_legend"
onclick="CWCSelectLayer('[leg_layer_name]', true)"[if name=selected value=1]

            <input type="checkbox" name="legendlayername[]"

                           else

                                    document.write ('&nbsp;');
                                    document.write ('<a
href="javascript:openNewWindow(&#039;[metadata
name=base][leg_class_name]&#039;);" title="Click here for more information
about the [leg_class_name] Class">');
                                    document.write ('[leg_class_name]');
                                    document.write ('</a>');
                                    }
            </script></div>
[/leg_class_html]
 All other aspects of the legend are working properly, I just cant seem to
put my finger on the issue.
Thank You
