Javascript: show/hide HTML node

rated 0 times [ 150] [ 7] / answers: 1 / hits: 16360 / 11 Years ago, sat, december 7, 2013, 12:00:00

I have an HTML page with some paragraphs which I would like to show or hide via Javascript. What should I do? Do I have to use the display property in the CSS file too?
Thank you

EDIT: Since the paragraphs will be the error messages of a form, I'd like that at the beginning none of them were visibile.

You can do like this :

To hide :

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

To show:

document.getElementById(elementId).style.display = 'block';
