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.

Bernard
