That's wrong. To hide a div, you set the visibility property to hidden:


document.getElementById('daten_allgemein').style.visibility = 'hidden';


...but that would only hide the element from view, but the space to where the element is situated is still observable (at least as I would see).

You could try to use the display property instead:


document.getElementById('daten_allgemein').style.display = 'none';



Hope that helps.

yes you are right. i know this but that's not the point. also, it don't work with
style.display = 'none';

i think the problem is the referencing. i can't raise the element and i've tried a javascript alert at the daten.php. nothing works!
