Netscape is very picky when it comes to html.
Here is the function

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

function init(){

if (navigator.appName == "Netscape") {
 if(document.getElementById) {
 layerRef="document.getElementById('";
        styleSwitch="').style";
         }
 else if(document.layers) {
 layerRef="document.layers['";
 styleSwitch="']";
 }
 }
else{

 layerRef="document.all('";
 styleSwitch="').style";

   }

  }

function showLayer(layerName){  eval(layerRef+layerName
+styleSwitch+'.visibility="visible"');
 }

function hideLayer(layerName){
eval(layerRef+layerName+styleSwitch+'.visibility="hidden"');
 }

call the function in the body onload event. To hide unhide divs plays this
in for example a mouse event
hideLayer('divName')
showLayer('divName')
Works in Netscape 4, 6 and in IE
