Does anyone know if Google reads content used in collapsible panels or a Jquery slideshow?

I'd say yes, it's still part of the page and in the code. The only thought is if it is in a hidden DIV they may think that is being a bit naughty.

The clever way to do it is to eet it all as visible in your css, then add the display: none in the JS. That way all the content will be fully visible to both spiders and text-to-speech browsers.

I think Google is well aware of things like this, as collapsible panels are very common in webpages nowadays.

I'm sure Google has methods to distinguish.

It will go on your HTML markup... For example, if you disable JS / CSS etc and look at your plain HTML page, then that is how google's bot's see it.
