The script does not work in Netscape. The functions Show(object) and Hide(object) require
the <layers> tag, which is not available. Instead there is <span>
tag.
A second point is that I think that if you replace <span> by <layer> then the positioning has to be given by an #id definition
inside of the <style> instead of a .myStyle class definition as
presented for <span>

In Netscape6 the script works.
Thank you.

I disagree with Jose.

the script worked fine with Netscape® Navigator 4.08

However, if I changed the name of the class from myStyle to my_Style

then it doesn't work

the page starts with the span visible

Thanks for the article! Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be answering my question.

When I include the statement:

if (document.getElementById(object)!=null)

in my code, if the element doesn't exist, I get an error message. I'd like to be able to test for existence, not just nullness -- since they seem to be distinct. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Mark
