Comment? Everything between <!-- and --> is not visible on the page.

Is there a standard div way *as opposed* to a p way or h way or span way?

What do you want to hide? You can hide a personally useful link like a
validation checker site with a full stop somewhere (sometimes of the same
colour as the background, sometimes not even that to help *you* find it) in
some corner or even some crowded bit... to save the trouble of using a
bookmark or in an effort at modesty to avoid displaying the W3C validated
logo but retaining the link...

And then of course, there is fancy for fancy purposes, I leave that to those
more knowledgeable...

Make the text the same color as the background.

Only one problem with that. Google will penalize for that, even though it
might be for a practical, innocent reason that has nothing to do with SEO.

I dunno how good Google is, but I've done -

style="background-color:#000000; color:#000001;"

and <sly grin> only I know it's there.

As far as Google and search engines in general go, I really despise
them. Most often, the best sites I've found aren't even listed at all
(-or after a googleplex or 2 of listed items.)
