Details
A link-like summary that opens a short explanation. For help only some people need, kept out of the way of everyone else.
When to use
Next to a question, for the people who are not sure what it means or where to find the answer.
When not to use
To hide something most people need. If most people would open it, put the text on the page. For several related sections, use the accordion.
Where to find your ID number
It is printed on the front of your national ID card. If you have lost it, the registration office can look it up from your name and date of birth.
