Hide/Show Divs & Input Box problem.

[lilkev]

Hey all,
I've got a div that hides and shows when I click a link which works good. However, the div that is toggled contains a couple of input boxes for logging into the site.

When the div is hidden, sometimes I can still see the cursor flashing in the input box of the hidden div and I can still type in the box whilst the div is hidden.

Is there any way around this problem?
Currently I'm just toggling the Visibility property on the layer, should I be using another property instead?

Thanks!
Kevin

I'm going to bed right now so won't test this but that's an interesting problem. You could use display:none but that removes it from the space altogether and might mess up your layout. You should supply the code or a link to try this with.

Yeh, sorry, been playing around with the site for a few hours to hopefully find a way around it but I couldn't.

The Link is here: ArtistsVale.
When the page loads in mozilla, the cursor is flashing on the page, and I can input text into the box despite the div being hidden. The 'Admin' link down the bottom below the copyright is what shows the panel.

The problem, I realized only occurs in Mozilla, and currently only onload. (after showing/hiding the login frame once, the problem is rectified) I tried assigning visibility: hidden to the input boxes via tag and classes which didn't work, so I'm a little unsure of what to do. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong but would appreciate some wisdom into the matter.

Thanks ahead!

PS. The display:none property worked a charm, but I wasn't sure how to make it show again when you click the link.

Nevermind!

I got it to work by replacing the visibility:show/hide code with the display:block/none code.

Sorry, I'm only new to all this stuff. -.-
