Thanks again.  Now, I'd like to update the layout of the subcontrols
to account for extra space left by the ones I've hidden.  Is that
possible?  Would I need to actually remove individual subcontrols with
removeChild()? And can I move all the subcontrols so they're above the
textarea instead of below?  Are the class files for these controls
available somewhere so I can figure out the answers to these questions
myself?

Thanks,

Tom
