This is long-standing well-documented behavior. One way to make it less icky
from an HTML standpoint is to use a class-based visibility flag:
.hide { display:none }
<div id="foo" class="hide">Hidden</div>
$('foo').removeClassName('hide'); // = $('foo').show();
The other way to handle this is to hide the elements you want to hide in a
callback invoked at page load, but this can lead to a Flash of Unhidden Content
on largish pages.
$$('#foo, #bar, #baz, .initially-hidden').invoke('hide');
The other thing to think about here is whether hiding these things at page load
is good or bad for your unscripted visitors (both of them).
