 Hello,

I have a series of <div> blocks which I want to appear in the same
position on the page, one after the other.

Can I do this with css/javascript?

At the moment one <div> block is visible and the other 3 invisible.
Once the first block has been used I want it to become invisible and
the second block to become visible and take its place on the page.

I can do the visible/invisible bit but the problem at the moment is
that each <div> occupies its own space and successive blocks, when
they are made visible, move along the page.

Cheers

Geoff

There are various ways to do this but one is to switch them between
display:block and display:none rather than between visibility:visible
and visibility:hidden.

If something's display:none then it's as though it weren't there at all.

Thanks a lot! Works as wished for.
