Hidden table - Is it possible? 3

[thelordoftherings]

Hello,

I would like to have a button that by clicking on it will show a hidden table and by another click will show it again. Is it possible? If yes, than how do I do it?

<TABLE id=myTable style="display:none;" border=1>
<tr><td>This is my Table</td></tr>
</table>

<script>
function showHide(inID){
  theObj = document.getElementById(inID)
  theDisp = theObj.style.display == "none" ? "block" : "none"
  theObj.style.display = theDisp
}
</script>

<input type=button value="Show/Hide" onClick="showHide('myTable')">

10X!

Can you please explain me this line:
theDisp = theObj.style.display == "none" ? "block" : "none"

Oh I understand now.
Different question: Where can I find all the "style" attributes? do you have a good link?

My favorite CSS reference page:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/css/reference/css_ref_entry.asp?frame=true

You can also navigate there by opening

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/css/css_node_entry.asp

and clicking on the word 'Reference' in the left-hand menu.

This is always my first stop for all my CSS style questions. Here's the specific link you can navigate to from here on TABLEs:

been trying various methods for an hour and half before I found this one that took 2 minutes to implement.
