JavaScript hide/show element

Question

How could I hide the \'Edit\'-link after I press it? and also can I hide the \"lorem ipsum\" text when I press edit?

Answer 1

You can also use this code to show/hide elements:

document.getElementById(id).style.visibility = "hidden";
document.getElementById(id).style.visibility = "visible";

Note The difference between style.visibility and style.display is when using visibility:hidden unlike display:none, the tag is not visible, but space is allocated for it on the page. The tag is rendered, it just isn't seen on the page.
