NS question
Why does this work in IE but not in NS?
var DefaultDiv = document.getElementById('Def');
//alert(DefaultDiv.style.display);
DefaultDiv.style.display = "none";
//alert(DefaultDiv.style.display);Display is set to 'none', but nothing changes...

That should work in NS 6 or higher. What version are you using?
BTW you referenced your solution. I think it should be noted about this.
function hide( objectId ){
// W3C & Netscape 6
if(document.getElementById && document.getElementById(objectId)) {
document.getElementById(objectId).style.visibility = "hidden";
document.getElementById(objectId).style.display = "none";
shown[objectId] = false ;
visibility = if you can see it or not on the page, where it is positioned via the style, or parent block.
display = works very similar, except for a difference, CSS positioning and layering is not required here. This is used for items like expanding menues. The content is not show, but when given a display it will push the content in the browser. I personally have not been able to accomplish this "dynamic" effect with visibility.

Hey Jack
Glad you found the answer (and perhaps got some other useful info about playing hide and show with objects in N).
Did you find that doc by searching? I ask because I'd be interested in the terms used. With all the material on the web related to troubleshooting stuff, I figure learning how to find solutions to problems like yours is a useful skill to have in administering a development forum as I do.
Thanks (and you're welcome
).

MMI, I used 'style.display netscape' in Google Groups.
ShaneS, thanx

Thanks, Jack.
I used "ns" as you had in your post. I had a feeling that was a bad idea, or at least that I should have tried something else as well.
