You can't set it to be invisible or hidden from javascript. Javascript
is the all-seeing eye, at least within teh context of a html page.
however, you can use a css, and even manipulate css properties with
javascript, to make it invisible or hidden to the average human at teh
other end of the gui.

(not tested - watch for typos)
IE4+ and NN6+ should be fine with this. Dunno about other browsers, but
Opera had a problem with styles the last I checked (which was a couple
versions ago, so might be fixed).
Add a layers statement for NN4.

<div id="divBioBottom" name="divBioBottom">

if (document.getElementById)
{
if (document.getElementById("divBioBottom").style)
document.getElementById("divBioBottom").style.visibility="hidden";
}
else if (document.all && !document.getElementById)
document.divBioBottom.visibility="hidden";

Is this what you are looking for? (Works in NN 7.0, Linux box)

<html>
<head>
<script type = "text/javascript">

</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Show" onClick="show('divBioBottom')">
<input type="button" value="Hide" onClick="hide('divBioBottom')">
<br>

Line 1<br>
<div id="divBioBottom">
content
</div>
Line 3<br>
</body>
</html>

Regards,
Robert
