$("[EMAIL PROTECTED]'cf_']").hide();
$("#id_you_need_to_show').show();
Either that, or hide both of the other divs when you need to show one.

Right, I've managed to get this half working now. I put my code into
a function, and put an onclick param on each <option> tag, so when
it's selected it runs my code:
example:
<script>
function contactTypeVenue() {
$( document.getElementById("cf_position")).hide();
$(document.getElementById("cf_email")).hide();
}
function contactTypePerson() {
$(document.getElementById("cf_position")).show();
$(document.getElementById("cf_email")).show();
}
function contactTypeCompany() {
$(document.getElementById("cf_position")).hide();
}
</script>
<select name="contact_type" class="contact_type" title="This allows
you to select what kind of contact you are adding. Depending on your
options, different fields will appear for you to fill in."
> <option value="person"
> <option value="venue"
<option value="company"
></select>
But now the problem I'm experiencing is when I use different
selections of options. For example, when I change it to company, it
removes the div cf_position, but not cf_email. When I then click
person, cf_email is already visible and causes the div to render
incorrectly.
Is their any way to check the state of a div tag first before
executing the code?
