How do you set the “Visible” property of a ASP.NET control from a Javascript function?

Question

Bascially I want to know the best way to hide/show an ASP.NET control from a Javascript function. I figured I would just access the control in Javascript using:

<         


        

Answer 1

Set the style to "display: none".

var theControl = document.getElementById("<%= txtEditBox.ClientID %>");
theControl.style.display = "none";
