hello,

        I've created a website www.d2001.net and this site was created 

fo ie 4+ because it uses css by changing their visibility example

                function showtext(textobj){

  eval("document.all."+textobj+".style.visibility=3D'visible'")

  }



now my problem is how to convert this to work on netscape  4.5 or six?



 i used the tag <span> in the html, do i need to change this to <div> or 

<layer>?



what is the Java script for netscape that will change the visibilty?



i've tried a few things but nothing works



please help

jesse

I initialize the function  below  in the body onload event: 

(onload=3D"init();)

Then I can change the visibility of the <div> element by referencing the 

id as in



showLayer('divID');

or

hideLayer('divID')



This works in Netscape 4, 6 and in IE.

But  by the way I thought this newsgroup is about ASP.



var layerRef=3D"null",styleSwitch=3D"null";



function init(){



if (navigator.appName =3D=3D "Netscape") {

 if(document.getElementById) {

 layerRef=3D"document.getElementById('";

        styleSwitch=3D"').style";

         }

 else if(document.layers) {

 layerRef=3D"document.layers['";

 styleSwitch=3D"']";

 }

 }

else{



 layerRef=3D"document.all('";

 styleSwitch=3D"').style";



   }



  }



function showLayer(layerName){  eval(layerRef+layerName 

+styleSwitch+'.visibility=3D"visible"');

 }



function hideLayer(layerName){  

eval(layerRef+layerName+styleSwitch+'.visibility=3D"hidden"');

 }
