	<h3>Function Parameter Descriptions</h3>
	<div class="desc">
	<h4><b>treeNode</b><span>JSON</span></h4>
	<p>JSON data object of the node to be expanded or collapsed</p>
	<p class="highlight_red">Please ensure that this data object is an internal node data object in zTree.</p>
	<h4 class="topLine"><b>expandFlag</b><span>Boolean</span></h4>
	<p>expandFlag = true means: expand the node.</p>
	<p>expandFlag = false means: collapse the node.</p>
	<p class="highlight_red">If this parameter is omitted, then toggle expand or collapse depend this node's expanded state.</p>
	<h4 class="topLine"><b>sonSign</b><span>Boolean</span></h4>
	<p>sonSign = true means: expand or collapse all of the child nodes depend the 'expandFlag' parameter.</p>
	<p>sonSign = false means: only expand or collapse this node.</p>
	<p class="highlight_red">When sonSign = false and treeNode.open = expandFlag, will not trigger the callback.</p>
	<p class="highlight_red">If this parameter is omitted, it is same as 'sonSign = false'.</p>
	<h4 class="topLine"><b>focus</b><span>Boolean</span></h4>
	<p>focus = true means: after expand or collapse, set the focus of this node for view.</p>
	<p>focus =  false means: after expand or coolapse, don't set the focus of this node.</p>
	<p class="highlight_red">If this parameter is omitted, it is same as 'focus = true'.</p>
	<h4 class="topLine"><b>callbackFlag</b><span>Boolean</span></h4>
	<p>callbackFlag = true means: call this method, will trigger 'beforeExpand / onExpand' or 'beforeCollapse / onCollapse' callback.</p>
	<p>callbackFlag = false means: call this method, will not trigger callback.</p>
	<p class="highlight_red">If this parameter is omitted, it is same as 'callbackFlag = false'</p>
	<h4 class="topLine"><b>Return </b><span>Boolean</span></h4>
	<p>return the result of expand or collapse.</p>
	<p>true means: expand node</p>
	<p>false means: collapse node</p>
	<p>null means: the node is not parent node.</p>

	<h3>Examples of function</h3>
	<h4>1. Expand the first selected node. (and expand this node's child nodes)</h4>

var nodes = treeObj.getSelectedNodes();
if (nodes.length>0) {
