Remove radio button in Netscape w/o reloading?

[Delton]

Hi,

I have been looking all over the net to find an answer. Can I remove a radio button with a statement after onclick, in Netscape 4.7/6? I have tried to add visible=false but that did not work. I am new to java script.


Thanks

Delton

post some of your code : where did you put the call to visible=false ? (and actually i think the correct ns syntax is more visible=hide (i don't remember the 1st part and don't have time to look for it, but for sure someone else has the answer here !!!))
what is not working, do you get an error message ?

onclick="answer(this.form);window.print();visible=hide;">
I tried changing the syntax to hide and got the same result. I don't actually get an error, but the button doesn't disappear.

try this.visibilty = "hide"; adam@aauser.com

I tried this.visibilty="hide"; and it didn't work. I ran weblint and it said "hide" was a unknown attribute for element input..?

I know visibility is an IE thing.. I may find another way .. I'll let you know.

i dont know if it works for anything other than layers in NS, but, to make a layer hidden in ns i think you use layername.visibility = 'hide';

The correct sytnax to hide an element in netscape is:

document.layers.layername.visibility="hide"

(I have tested "hidden" here as well in NS4.7 so I would use that for compatibility)

It is true that you can only layers in NS. jared@aauser.com

Any suggestions on layer examples/tutorials?

Hmmm... well you can try to use the dynapi (

http://dynapi.sourceforge.net

) if you must support NS4.X... but since < 10% of the population use it, I would support only IE4+ and NS6. You'll save yourself a lot of hair!

If you want actual tutorials, one place to go is:

Many thanks to all for the help, I think I will follow the advice on IE4&amp;NS6..
