[SOLVED] Hide listbox on html page on load

Hello, I am trying to hide by default a listbox that is populated with the CAR file. Althought the code was working in 765, we have upgraded to 769, seems the listbox always appear on load now. The radio button seems to be able to hide the listbox and show the listbox properly.

Here's an example of my code using the CAR file.

You can see that by default, the visibility of the listbox is set to hidden and also in the JS, we have put a command to hide the listbox. What is in 769 that changed since 765?

Thanks,

OnInitialUpdate() is not firing because it is spelled wrong, it should be onInitialUpdate(). The 'O' is lowercase.

Thanks but even with the onInitialUpdate() spelled with the 'O' in lowercase, it doesn't change anything.

Thanks guys, I've found the problem. It was due to the 'O' that had to be lowercase but also, the following line:

document.getElementsById("CARLIST").style.visibility='hidden';

should be:

document.getElementById("CARLIST").style.visibility='hidden';

There is not 's' in getElementById. Double typo error.

Why is it always when you ask for help that you start to really see the problem?

I feel so ridiculous... thank you so much.

S7,

Don't feel ridiculous! You just helped me with a process where I wanted to do the same thing. I had already removed the "s" in

  
document.getElementsById("CARLIST").style.visibility='hidden';

AND, I forgot to mention that...

I was playing around with the ibirls3 to 2 to blank...

THANKS!!!
