Hi,

I have an asp page that has a 2 radio buttons and a set of input boxes. When I click on the 1rst radio button I need the input boxes to disappear. I am trying to use a set of div tags around the whole chunck of html that creates the inputs but they are not disppearing when clicking on the radion button. I'm sure I have the div tags set up wrong because I've never used them before. Here is some of my code. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? The name of the div tag is 'divaddress' so you can locate it.

Javascript function:

function Billship_OnClick()
{
document.getElementById("divaddress").style.display = "none";
}

html:

<form name=form1 action="<%= strSecPath %>procchkout_dyn.asp" method=post
><input type=hidden value="<%=UserID%>" name=UserID
> <input id=Hidden1 type=hidden name=CardType
> <input id=Hidden2 type=hidden name=AuthReq
> <input type=hidden value="<%=Offer%>" name=HTMLEmail
> <input type=hidden value=CA name=State
>
<table cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 align=center bgColor=#ffcc66 border=0

by the way, please disregard the typo for the ending div tag, it is correct in my page and I pasted it wrong.

Welcome to WW. The incredible thing about this place is that someone will probably read all that code and figure out your problem. Good luck.

I think what you need to do is simplify your code. Eliminate everything and anything not related to your problem. Here is what I would suggest:

<html><head>
<script>
function BillShip()
{
document.getElementById('billaddress').style.display = "none";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="form1">
<input type="radio" onclick="BillShip()">
<div id="billaddress">Shipping address</div>
</form>
</body>

Okay, here is some simplified code. I'm having the same problem, but maybe it will be easier to track down now. - Thanks

<script language=javascript>

function Billship_OnClick()
{
document.getElementById("divaddress").style.display = "none";
}

</script>
</HEAD>
<body bgColor=#000000>
<table cellPadding=10 width=680 align=center bgColor=#ffffff>
<tr>
<td>


<!-- -------Begin Form------- -->
<form name=form1 action="<%= strSecPath %>procchkout_dyn.asp" method=post

<table cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 align=center bgColor=#ffcc66 border=0


<tr>

<div id="divaddress"><td noWrap align=right>First Name: <IMG height=8 src="images/required.gif" width=8 ><IMG height=10 src="art/pix.gif" width=4 ></td>
<td align=left width=191><input tabIndex=1 type=text size=25 value="" name=Firstname2 ID="Firstname2"></td>
<td noWrap><IMG height=1 src="images/pix.gif" width=8 ></td>
<td noWrap align=right width=83>Address: <IMG height=8 src="images/required.gif" width=8 ><IMG height=10 src="art/pix.gif" width=4 ></td>
<td noWrap align=left><input type=text size=25 value="" name=Address2 ID="Address2"> </td></div>

</tr>
<tr>
<TD align=right>Billing Address: <IMG height=8 src="images/required.gif" width=8 ><IMG height=10 src="art/pix.gif" width=4 ></TD>
<TD width=191><INPUT id=Radio3 type=radio
value="Same as Delivery" name=Billship onclick=Billship_OnClick()> Same as
Delivery Address</TD>
<TD></TD>
<TD align=right width=83><INPUT id=Radio2
type=radio value="Separate Billing Address" name=Billship
></TD>
<td colSpan=5>Separate Billing Address </td></tr>
</table>
</form>

</body></HTML>

Hi - and welcome to the forums.

I suggest you use the W3Cs HTML validator [validator.w3.org] (or maybe another validator) to find any errors in your table, row, and cell tags. The mark-up you've posted here does have structural errors - such as following a </td> immediately with a <tr> in the first example.

While I realize this may just be copy/paste error, you want to handle that level of errors in the basic HTML first before you try to debug dHTML scripts. Otherwise you may spin in circles.

Yes definately need to validate that HTML. Your problem is you are trying to put a div around a bunch of table cells, but a div can't wrap a group of cells, only a whole table. What you have is

<table>
<tr><td>TextA</td></tr>
<div>
<tr><td>TextB</td></tr>
</div>
</table>

What you probably need to have is something like this

<table>
<tr><td>TextA</td></tr>
</table>
<div>
<table>
<tr><td>TextB</td></tr>
</table>
</div>

Thanks a bunch! Those errors were from cutting and pasting, but the real error was with the divs aroung the data cells.
