This is what I have and it's not working.

document.getElementById('form1').addEventListener('submit', function(){

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

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

});

The JavaScript console shows this error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'onclick' of undefined

Any suggestion is much appreciated.

Okay, I figured it out. All I need the preventDefault(); So, here's the solution.

document.getElementById('form1').addEventListener('submit', function(evt){

    evt.preventDefault();

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

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

})
