You could try a width and height of 0px and the overflow set to hidden.
I don't know if all browsers will accept 0px for the width or height,
therefor I made a simple js example:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function hideDiv(divId)
{
var d = document.getElementById(divId);
if(document.all){
d.style.width = "0px";
d.style.height = "0px";
d.style.overflow = "hidden";
} else {
d.style.visibility = "hidden";
}
}
hideDiv("testDiv");
</script>
Just place it just before the </body> tag.
