      The 'type' attribute is required (and sufficient); 'language' is not. This
      should read

      <script type="text/javascript">
      [color=blue]
      > function showtable(){
      > var myform1 = document.form1[/color]

      End statements with a semi-colon (;).
      [color=blue]
      > if(myform1.T1.v alue=="Size Mix")
      > {
      > document.getEle mentByid "Table1").style .visibility="hi dden"[/color]

      If this is a direct copy, your problem is two-fold:

      1) The method name is "getElementById ". Remember that case is significant
      in JavaScript.
      2) You missed the opening parenthesis in the method call.

      The missing semi-colon appies here, too.

          ^
          I
          Case sensitivity, it should be an upper case I in getElementById.
