Hiding and Displaying 2 HTML tables in the same place with DHTML

I would like to be able to display either one or the other HTML table
in the same place. I.e., there are 2 buttons on the screen. When the
user clicks one button, the table A is displayed below. When the user
clicks the other button, the table A disappears and the table B appears
in the same place.

When I use the classic div tags followed by table code, they are
displayed sequentially on the page, rather than in the same place.

Can someone help with a code snippet and advice?

Thanks!!!

You may not have provided enough information, but to me it sounds like
you haven't done anything with css? If that is the case, let's assume
table A is the first table displayed like so in your html:

<input type = "button" onClick = "toggleA()" />
<input type = "button" onClick = "toggleB()" />

<div id = "tableA" style = "display: block">
[your tableA code]
</div>

<div id = "tableB" style = "display: none">
[your tableB code]
</div>

Please note this isn't the most efficient of code, but it'll get you
by. In your javascript you could have the following:

function toggleA()
{
document.getElementById("tableB").style.display = "none";
document.getElementById("tableA").style.display = "block";
}

function toggleB()
{
document.getElementById("tableA").style.display = "none";
document.getElementById("tableB").style.display = "block";
}

This will in effect "hide" one table, and in it's place show the other
table instead.

Hope this helps.
