Risk/Return [Heading] rr_RiskReturnHeading Health Care Fund
Objective [Heading] rr_ObjectiveHeading INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
Objective, Primary [Text Block] rr_ObjectivePrimaryTextBlock The Health Care Fund (the "Fund") seeks to provide capital appreciation by
investing in companies that are involved in the health care industry ("Health
Care Companies").
Expense [Heading] rr_ExpenseHeading FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE FUND
Expense Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseNarrativeTextBlock This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold
Advisor Class Shares or Investor Class Shares of the Fund.
Shareholder Fees Caption [Text] rr_ShareholderFeesCaption SHAREHOLDER FEES (fees paid directly from your investment) N/A
Operating Expenses Caption [Text] rr_OperatingExpensesCaption ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)
Portfolio Turnover [Heading] rr_PortfolioTurnoverHeading PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells
securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may
indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund
shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's
performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover
rate was 582% of the average value of its portfolio. The Fund's portfolio
turnover rate is calculated without regard to cash instruments or derivatives.
If such instruments were included, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate might be
significantly higher.

Expense Example [Heading] rr_ExpenseExampleHeading EXAMPLE
Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund
with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods
indicated, and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The
Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the
Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be
higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:
Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests substantially all (at least 80%) of
its net assets in equity securities of Health Care Companies that are traded in
the United States and in derivatives, which primarily consist of futures
contracts and options on securities, futures contracts, and stock indices. The
Fund will invest to a significant extent in the securities of Health Care
Companies that have small to mid-sized capitalizations. Health Care Companies
include pharmaceutical companies, companies involved in the research and
development of pharmaceutical products and services, companies involved in the
operation of health care facilities, and other companies involved in the design,
manufacture, or sale of health care related products or services. The Fund also
may purchase American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") to gain exposure to foreign
Health Care Companies and U.S. government securities. In an effort to ensure
that the Fund is fully invested on a day-to-day basis, the Fund may conduct any
necessary trading activity at or just prior to the close of the U.S. financial
markets. The Fund invests in the securities of a limited number of issuers
conducting business in the health care sector and, therefore, may be
concentrated in an industry or group of industries within the health care
sector. The Fund is non-diversified and, therefore, may invest a greater
percentage of its assets in a particular issuer in comparison to a diversified
fund.
Strategy Portfolio Concentration [Text] rr_StrategyPortfolioConcentration The Fund invests in the securities of a limited number of issuers conducting business in the health care sector and, therefore, may be concentrated in an industry or group of industries within the health care sector.
Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading PRINCIPAL RISKS
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock As with all mutual funds, a shareholder is subject to the risk that his or her
investment could lose money. In addition to this risk, the Fund is subject to a
number of additional risks that may affect the value of its shares, including:

Active Trading Risk - Active trading, also called "high portfolio turnover," may
result in higher brokerage costs or mark-up charges, which may negatively affect
Fund performance and result in short-term capital gains, which have a negative
tax effect. Large movements of assets into and out of the Fund due to active
trading also may adversely affect the Fund's ability to achieve its investment
objective.

Depositary Receipt Risk - The Fund may hold the securities of non-U.S. companies
in the form of ADRs. The underlying securities of the ADRs in the Fund's
portfolio are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that
may affect the value of the Fund's portfolio. In addition, the value of the
securities underlying the ADRs may change materially when the U.S. markets are
not open for trading. Investments in the underlying foreign securities also
involve political and economic risks distinct from those associated with
investing in the securities of U.S. issuers.

Derivatives Risk - The Fund's investments in derivatives may pose risks in
addition to those associated with investing directly in securities or other
investments, including illiquidity of the derivatives, imperfect correlations
with underlying investments or the Fund's other portfolio holdings, lack of
availability and counterparty risk. The Fund could lose more than the principal
amount invested.

Early Closing Risk - The Fund is subject to the risk that unanticipated early
closings of securities exchanges and other financial markets may result in the
Fund's inability to buy or sell securities or other financial instruments on
that day and may cause the Fund to incur substantial trading losses.

Foreign Issuer Exposure Risk - The Fund may invest in securities of foreign
companies directly, or in financial instruments, such as ADRs, that are
indirectly linked to the performance of foreign issuers. Foreign securities
markets generally have less trading volume and less liquidity than U.S. markets,
and prices in some foreign markets may fluctuate more than those of securities
traded on U.S. markets.

Health Care Sector Risk - To the extent that the Fund's investments are exposed
to issuers conducting business in the health care sector, the Fund is subject to
the risk that the securities of such issuers will underperform the market as a
whole due to legislative or regulatory changes, adverse market conditions and/or
increased competition affecting that economic sector. The prices of the
securities of Health Care Companies also may fluctuate widely in response to
such events.

Market Risk - The Fund's investments in securities and derivatives, in general,
are subject to market risks that may cause their prices, and therefore the
Fund's value, to fluctuate over time. An investment in the Fund may lose money.

Mid-Capitalization Securities Risk - The Fund is subject to the risk that
medium-capitalization stocks may underperform other segments of the equity
market or the equity market as a whole.

Non-Diversification Risk - The Fund is considered non-diversified and can invest
a greater portion of its assets in securities of individual issuers than a
diversified fund. As a result, changes in the market value of a single security
could cause greater fluctuations in the value of Fund shares than would occur in
a diversified fund.

Small-Capitalization Securities Risk - The Fund is subject to the risk that
small-capitalization stocks may underperform other segments of the equity market
or the equity market as a whole.

Temporary Defensive Investment Risk- The Fund does not attempt to take defensive
positions in declining markets. Therefore, the Fund may be subject to greater
losses in a declining market than a fund that does take defensive positions in
declining markets.

Trading Halt Risk - If a trading halt occurs, the Fund may temporarily be unable
to purchase or sell securities, options or futures contracts. Such a trading
halt near the time the Fund prices its shares may limit the Fund's ability to
use leverage and may prevent the Fund from achieving its investment objective.
Risk Lose Money [Text] rr_RiskLoseMoney As with all mutual funds, a shareholder is subject to the risk that his or her investment could lose money.
Risk Nondiversified Status [Text] rr_RiskNondiversifiedStatus The Fund is considered non-diversified and can invest a greater portion of its assets in securities of individual issuers than a diversified fund. As a result, changes in the market value of a single security could cause greater fluctuations in the value of Fund shares than would occur in a diversified fund.
Bar Chart and Performance Table [Heading] rr_BarChartAndPerformanceTableHeading PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
Performance Narrative [Text Block] rr_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock The following bar chart shows the performance of the Investor Class Shares of
the Fund from year to year. The variability of performance over time provides an
indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The following table shows the
average annual total returns of the Investor Class Shares and Advisor Class
Shares of the Fund over different periods of time in comparison to the
performance of a broad-based market index. The figures in the bar chart and
table assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions. Of
course, this past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily
indicate how the Fund will perform in the future.
