You should hide the input with script and not with static HTML/CSS as
otherwise the page is not functional if script is not enabled or supported:
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>toggli ng the CSS display property</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function hideElement (element) {
if (element.style) {
element.style.d isplay = 'none';
}
}
function showElement (element) {
if (element.style) {
element.style.d isplay = '';
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="formName" action="whateve r.php">
<input type="radio" name="radioName "
onclick="if (this.checked) {
showElement(thi s.form.elements .inputName);
}"
value="Kibology ">
<input type="radio" name="radioName "
onclick="if (this.checked) {
hideElement(thi s.form.elements .inputName);
}"
value="JavaScri pt">
<input type="text" name="inputName ">
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
hideElement(doc ument.forms.for mName.elements. inputName);
</script>
</body>
</html>
That should make the page functional in any browser and allow the
desired effect in IE4+, Netscape 6/7, Mozilla, Opera 7 and other
browsers allowing to change the CSS display setting dynamically.
