Hey,

I have a checkbox like
<input type=&quot;checkbox&quot; name=&quot;chkRB&quot; onclick=&quot;javascript:display();&quot;>

I have a button which I don't want to show unless user clicks on any of these check boxes

I set

<input type=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;btnnormal.gif&quot; style=&quot;display:none&quot; id=&quot;btnDecline&quot; name=&quot;btnDecline&quot;>


then in javascript I have


function display(){ document.frmGadgetRB.btnDecline.style.display = &quot;&quot;
}


And its not working. Please tell me what to do???

[lol] I'm back

anyways.
in the style you need to use visibility:hidden
<input type=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;btnnormal.gif&quot; style=&quot;visibility:hidden&quot; id=&quot;btnDecline&quot; name=&quot;btnDecline&quot;>

then call it
function display(){ document.frmGadgetRB.btnDecline.style.visibility = &quot;visible&quot;
}


try that let us know _________________________________________________________

maybe it's the onclick needing to be onClick
rememebr that javascript is case sensitive
try this
<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
function display(){
document.getElementById('btnDecline').style.visibility='visible';
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name=&quot;frmGadgetRB&quot;>


<input type=&quot;checkbox&quot; name=&quot;chkRB&quot; onClick=&quot;javascript:display();&quot;>
<input type=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;btnnormal.gif&quot; id=&quot;btnDecline&quot; style=&quot;visibility:hidden;&quot;>
</form>
