Another asp.net/Javascript Question

[Joey]

I am going to use a collection of either div HTML server controls or
panel web server controls (renders as div on newer browsers) on a web
form. I need to be able to hide them with a client-side javascript
switch block, based upon what is selected in a drop-down list web
server control (renders as HTML select on newer browsers).

I have found that the following does not work for HTML div elements...

document.all['pnlMyPanel'].style.display= 'none';

....but it always worked for other controls like label/span, dropdown
list/select, etc...

Do you guys have any suggestions on how to handle this? I really
appreciate your help.

You have to use the ClientID, not the Control ID.

Joey,
The easiet way to debug these issues is to View the Source of the HTML
(disable SMARTNAVIGATION for this to work) and then you will see the actual
HTML. Sometimes, I just save this result as another HTML file and then fix
the issue and port the Client side code to the ASP.NET Form.
