problem with DIV

[safra]

Hi,

let's say you have a div tag without contents.
step 1: When the page is loaded this div tag will not 'claim' space in the window.

step 2: div tag has contents through user action

step 3: div tag goes back to no contents through user action

Now the div tag is claiming space (1 line).

Is there a way to get rid of this line like as if the case when the page finished loading?

Regards,

Ron

I don't believe there is, since the <div> tag is sort of like the <p> tag like that -- it has a built in <br>, of sorts.

You can, however, use <span> tags, to achieve a like effect, and it has no linebreak with it.

you can set the divs display property like so (IE only):

function changeContents(val)
{
if(val==&quot;&quot
{
thedivobject.style.display='none';
}
else
{
thedivobject.style.display='block';
}
thedivobject.innerText = val;
