<div> help!!!

[anuj576]

hey guys,
I have made a web page which comprises of two divisions.The first div is used to display a table which shows the inhouse trainess and the other div also displays a table which shows the outside trainess.
Initially when the page loads both the divisions are hidden.I have also made two buttons which show respective divisions.if one division is visible then the other is hidden and vice-versa.
The problem I am having is that one division is displayed at the bottom of the other of the other division which means that when the top division is hidden and the other is visible,the div is displayed leaving some space at the top which doen't look nice.
What i want is that if both the divisions can be displayed at the same place.
PLEASE HELP

Can you show us a link to your current page - I mean the one that you actually wrote, not the one that was simply cut&pasted from

You should be switching between block display and none display instead of visibility.

It sounds like you are setting the "visibility" style to "hidden" to hide the DIVs and setting it to "visible" to show them again.

This method works, but as you have discovered, leaves the space taken up by the DIVs.

To avoid this, instead set the "display" style to "none" to hide them, and to "block" to show them again.

Hope this helps,
Dan
