Hi guys,

Am a beginner with Jquery and what i want is as follows.
I have a div that should be hidden on default, but when a certain URL
parameter is present, then the div is visible.

I am basing the following on this demo :
http://sandbox.ajaxcssblog.com/jquery/jquery.url/url-demo.htm

I have the following html
------------------------------------------------------------------------
<div id="display" style="display:hidden;">
<h2>header</h2>
<p>test text</p>
</div>
------------------------------------------------------------------------

And i have the following in the head
------------------------------------------------------------------------
<script type="text/javascript" id="demoscript">
        $(function(){
                $("#display").text($.url.param("loginstatus") || "... nothing 
yet");
        });
        </script>
------------------------------------------------------------------------

What i basically want is that when the URL parameter shows  
index.html?showdiv=yes
then the div should be displayed.

So it would make sense to put an IF statement in the script as well, the
only problem is that i cannot or do not understand how i can modify the JS
script in such a way that it does just that.

I have tried many variations with IF and ELSE statements but nothing ever
seems to work as i am probably missing how to close tags properly etc.

Would anyone be willing to steer me in the right direction?
