Hi,

I'm creating to make a field go from hidden to visible based when a button is clicked using javascript. I've looked at this: http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:129:1617669608355761
But don't understand it and can't get it to work. First I had a Hidden text field. The user clicks the "New" button which calls the myFunc() js function (without page submit). Here I tried various things based off another thread that had $x(P11_NEWFIELD).value...I tried:
$x(P11_NEWFIELD).visible ...
$x(P11_NEWFIELD).visibility...
$x(P11_NEWFIELD).hidden ...
None worked. I then tried it the other way around (making it a text field and trying to hide it...didn't work. I tried putting html_HideElement(this); in the text fields attributes to see if it did something but still visible making me unsurue what that is meant to do. Help :x

Button
URL = javascript:myFunc();

Wanting P11_NEWFIELD to go from hidden to visible text field after button pressed.

Edit: It doesn't seem to be working at all actually...I tried window.open("Hi"); in the function & it didn't appear...

Thanks for help
Mike
