How doesn't it work? How is it called? In which browser?

The try:
document.forms['myform'].style.visibility="hidden";
or
document.getElementById("myform").style.visibility="hidden";

It is very bad style to just assume that the form's name can be used
as a global variable. It breaks in many browsers.

I'd create a div round the <form> </form> and then hide the contents of the
div.

It does work, at least in IE. Problem is somewhere else.
