p.s. do not know the context nor do i wish to teach you to suck eggs,
but visibility:hidden is not the same as display:none and they should
not be used interchangeably. display:none effectively removes the
element from the document flow but visibility:hidden leaves the object
in place but renders it invisible, quite different effects!
