Replacing one DIV with another

[Divya Chandrasekhar]

Hi All,
I am fairly new to Java script.
My problem is as follows:
I need to replace one DIV with another.
The first div, "div1", is shown on page entry; "div2" is initially hidden.
"div1" contains a small form. On click of the submit in "div1", the back-end is hit and we fetch some data which then needs to be populated in "div2" when we get redirected back to this page, so I want "div1" to be replaced by "div2".
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Divya

Have an onload() function which hides/displays the corresponding DIV based on some parameter on the JSP.

Why are you doing this with JavaScript in the first place? If the decision regarding which section to show is made on the server, simply use a JSP conditional to include the section or not. Including both sections only to completely hide one of them after the page gets to the client makes no sense. Using JavaScript to do this only makes sense if the decision needs to be made on the client rather than the server.

Also, you could use the <logic:present> tag to check whether the data list for section two is null or not. if it is, display section one, else display section two.

Thanks and Regards,
