title: Open a child node in jsTree
body: <p>I would like jsTree (3.0.2, with a static ul list, no JSON, no AJAX) to open a child node on load. Actually, the parent node of the current child node.</p>
  
  <p>The raw HTML would look like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li id="1"&gt;
        &lt;ul&gt;
          &lt;li id="2"&gt;
             &lt;ul&gt;
                &lt;li id="3" class="current"&gt;
                &lt;/li&gt;
             &lt;/ul&gt;
          &lt;/li&gt;
        &lt;/ul&gt;
        &lt;ul&gt;
          &lt;li id="4"&gt;
             &lt;ul&gt;
                &lt;li id="5"&gt;
                &lt;/li&gt;
             &lt;/ul&gt;
          &lt;/li&gt;
        &lt;/ul&gt;
    &lt;/li&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And the desired output is simply</p>
  
  <pre><code>1
  +-2
   +-3
  +-4
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have checked about every other post here regarding <code>open_node</code>and similar. I haven't managed to get anything to work.</p>
  
  <p>Regarding the post <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12013785/how-do-i-programmatically-select-a-node-in-jstree-and-open-all-parents">How do I programmatically select a node in jsTree and open all parents</a>: It seems to be the same question, but I am not sure if it applies to older versions.</p>
