Another approach might do what you are after: document.all.main1.style.display = "none"; to hide the div, document.all.main1.style.display = "block"; to show the div
Unless you have a specific reason for not using the Display style. I've done this extensively on my current project with no problems (except coder errors of course).

Like if the main div is hidden the subs will be as well without having to hide each one. example: <DIV name="main1"> <DIV name="sub1main1"></div> <DIV name="sub2main1"></div> </div> <Div name="main2"> <DIV name="sub1main2"></div> <DIV name="sub2main2"></div> </div> currently I can hide all three: function hide(){ document.all.main1.style.visibility= 'hidden'; document.all.sub1main1.style.visibility= 'hidden'; document.all.sub2main1.style.visibility= 'hidden'; document.all.main2.style.visibility= 'visible'; document.all.sub1main2.style.visibility= 'visible'; document.all.sub2main2.style.visibility= 'visible'; } but I was hoping it might be possible to hide the subs just by hiding the main.
