visable/invisable button

[Bill Burke]

Hello,

Is there a way to make an input button visable/invisable based on the value of a
variable? Or any other method? How?

TIA,

HTML doesn't have variables.

HTML doesn't have variables.

Client support is a variable ;-)

<input id="invis" type=button value="Camouflage"
onmouseout="this.form.invis.style.display='none'">

But useless if they use tab/spacebar to press the button.

Here's a little demo. There are two easy methods of making buttons
disappear: using block and visibility styles. If you use block like
"SONY, JP" the browser will remove the button and redraw the page as if
the button was never there - be careful with this method because it
could break formatting of the rest of the page. Second method,
visibility, will hide the button but leave the space where it was
empty, keeping the formatting.


<script type='text/javascript'>
var flag=0;
function toggleButton(){
var obj=document.getElementById('cmd');
if (flag==0){
obj.style.visibility='hidden';
flag=1;
}
else{
flag=0;
obj.style.visibility='visible';
}
}
</script>

<input type='button' id='toggle' value='Click to toggle'
onclick='toggleButton()'>
<input type='button' id='cmd' value='I am a button'>
