Unhappy Display/Hide Div
Hello All,

I'm running into a little trouble trying to display a hidden div... I could swear that I had done this exact same thing before and it worked fine...

Quote:
function DisplayNav(in_strName, in_obj)
{
if (strCurrentDisplay != in_strName)
{
strCurrentDisplay = in_strName;

document.getElementById('Practice').style.display='none';
document.getElementById('Tournaments').style.display='none';
document.getElementById('Archive').style.display='none';
document.getElementById('Photos').style.display='none';

document.getElementById(in_strName).style.display='';
}
}

Hiddend Div
Quote:
<div id="Photos" style="DISPLAY: none">
<table border="0" width="800" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td width="100%">
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="100%"><p align="center"><b><font face="Arial" size="5">Team Photos</font></b></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%">soon...</span></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<hr noshade size="5" width="800" align="left">
</div>

The link to display the Div (and hide others)
Quote:
<A href="javascript:DisplayNav('Photos')">Practice Schedule</A>


The error I get is...

error object expected.

Any help is much appreciated.

~Thanks, Jim

First of all, this...
Code:
 document.getElementById(in_strName).style.display='';

...should be like this...
Code:
 document.getElementById(in_strName).style.display='block';

Secondly, what is giving the error? What does the FireFox js debugger tell you? Or if you are using IE, where in the code is the error?

Hey ChiefWigs1982,

I'm using IE, and I get the error on the HREF...

Code:
DisplayNav('Practice')


Your help is much appreciated.

~Thanks again, Jim

I can't see anything wrong with your href... Do you have a link to your code?

Object expected is usually IE's way of telling you it can't find the function you are looking for. JS is ub0r case-sensitive, so make sure the function name is the same as the one you are calling...

Why are you using this script tag?
Code:
<script language="JavaScript" for="window" event="onload">

Change your whole script block to this...
Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
var strCurrentDisplay='';
function DisplayDIV(in_strName)
{
	document.getElementById('Practice').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('Tournaments').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('Archive').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('Photos').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById(in_strName).style.display='block';
}
</script>
