Another little note -
If I remove display none on the inner content div and then try and search the page - the browser finds the info and tries to toggle the details element open by adding an 'open' attribute.
Unfortunately the JS that runs this component seems to only change the "data-collapsed" attribute on click (maybe some other events too?)
A fix could be to listen to the onToggle event, then it would be aware that the browser was trying to open the details element.
Yes, I've also seen this problem. I thought it self-fixed somehow, because I saw it working recently, but apparently not 😅
Surprisingly this is a "progressive degradation" because if you turn JS off, it's not possible to search those details elements.
I'm looking into it right now but it looks like this component should probably not "control" the open prop.
Thanks Sébastien!
Here's a first attempt, it works but introduces other bugs and also not sure the experience is great because the keyword does not highlight until the animation completes 😅

This probably requires more work to figure this out 😅
Maybe until we find a solution we could expose an option to disable that "animated progressive enhancement" through swizzle? This way your details won't be animated but at least they would be accessible.
Yeah - I think that would be a good middle ground in the interim. Thanks for looking into it. 🙏
Man this means I'm gonna have to update to v3 doesn't it 🫠 Been putting that one off because of the React 18/animation cleanup implications.
Technically you can already swizzle the @theme/Details
element, it's just a wrapper around our "internal lib component" so you could provide your own implementation for it even under v2.
Here's what our implementation is doing:
import React from 'react';
import clsx from 'clsx';
import {Details as DetailsGeneric} from '@docusaurus/theme-common/Details';
import type {Props} from '@theme/Details';
import styles from './styles.module.css';
const InfimaClasses = 'alert alert--info';
export default function Details({...props}: Props): JSX.Element {
return (
<DetailsGeneric
{...props}
className={clsx(InfimaClasses, styles.details, props.className)}
/>
);
}
You could replace it with a simpler one:
import React from 'react';
import type {Props} from '@theme/Details';
const InfimaClasses = 'alert alert--info';
export default function Details({summary, ...props}: Props): JSX.Element {
const summaryElement = React.isValidElement(summary) ? (
summary
) : (
<summary>{summary ?? 'Details'}</summary>
);
return (
<details {...props} className={InfimaClasses}>
{summaryElement}
{props.children}
</details>
);
}
(an important detail here is that <summary>
is received as props.summary
, not as props.children[0]
like you would expect)
The only difference would be that it will not be collapsible, and the arrow is not using a custom animated icon
If I provide something in v3, that would only be a "shortcut" to the workaround suggested above. I guess it's not really useful to provide considering it's quite easy to achieve on v2/v3 already. We should focus on solving the accessibility bug directly.
Ah, yeah that's a nice easy swizzle. I'll get on that. Thanks so much for the advice. Appreciated!
Got it all implemented with a little animated icon/animated expand and it's working with search - thanks so much!
Note for myself, in 2025 we might be able to progressively enhance and animate details element without and JS: https://nerdy.dev/open-and-close-transitions-for-the-details-element
I'm thinking of rebuilding a new Details component based on these new modern CSS attributes. We could expose it with an opt-in flag until browsers support those new CSS rules.

Hey folks.
The way that the details elements are implemented in docusaurus currently is incompatible with searching the page with cmd + F.
This is quite a big deal for documentation.
Closed details elements are searchable in chrome https://chromestatus.com/feature/5032469667512320
I've tested in safari and firefox on my mac too and they also open on this page if I search for a word within https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/details
However, in my site and on the docusaurus site they aren't searchable due to the styling that animates the height change.
