Here are my earlier notes on this subject without jquery

with jquery you can do this


function showformdiv()
{
   $("#formdiv").show();
   $("#showformDivId").hide();
   $("#hideformDivId").show();
}
function hideformdiv()
{
   $("#formdiv").hide();
   $("#showformDivId").show();
   $("#hideformDivId").hide();
}

of course you have to name your divs accordingly

wondering if they have additional options

because if I hide my div with hidden visibility as a style argument, it gets messed up. So I am wondering if show and hide has other arguments to correctly rewrite the style of the div.

show does its magic by controlling the display property of style

So do this for your div if you want to hide it to start with


<div id="hideformDivId" style="display:none">
