Appear/fade show/hide

I am trying to fade in and out various layers on a page and
have been trying to use the show/hide command to hide layers and
then using the fade in effect to make other layers appear. It all
works ok until I hide an element - the fade in effect can't seem to
make it appear again like it's been over ridden - is there anyway
of combining the two so that hide/show elements can fade things in
and out?
By the way I'm not using appear/fade to hide things as you
end up fading out every layer on the page - even ones that are not
currently visible - which leads to a right old mess!
Thanks for any help!

I also would like to know how this is done. :)
thanks

Fade-Appear & Show-Hide

I have a several pages on my website where thumbnail images have "on Click Show " Behaviours, they then show larger versions of the image you can then click the image to hide it again. I've been asked to add an Appear - Fade effects to them instead by the client unfortunatly the Fade 0% layers the hidden image/div over the page, navbar and the other thumbnails so that even though you can not see it, it stops your clicking the content behind it. Is there a way around this as using a "on Click" Fade&Hide and a Shoe/Appear is jerky and abit unreliable?
I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 atm and any help would be great.

http://www.paperstreet.me.uk/Galleries/Gallery_Accenture.html
the one with the Fade/appear issuse is the top right one, it can be reset by hitting refresh or if you use the left right arrows to hop to another image then closing it, but i'd like them to fade from one to the other.

Spry effect Appear/Fade don't toggle

Ok.
I have applied a simple, basic, no more basic then this
cannot be possible, Appear/Fade using the effects behaviors menu in
DW.
I have turn on the Toggle option and I said: "appear from 0
to 100".
Well the result is this:
http://www.cantinho.org/admin/cantinho/showhide.php
Note: I can make a CSS to make the element disapear at the
beginning, but why should I need that if I have configured to show
from 0 to 100% ?
What I'm missing here?
Thanks.

I have been having a similar problem, and I thought your fix
might help my problem, but after downloading and running it, I'm
still getting the same thing. I'm trying to use effectAppearFade to
make a target link appear when another link is clicked. In order
for it to appear, I evidently need to not hide it in CSS Styles,
but then when the page first opens, the target link is visible. I
can almost make it work by fading it from 100 to 0 in an onload
operation on the body of the page. The appear logic then works fine
and even toggles okay if I turn that on, but, when the page first
loads, the link that I'm hiding flashes briefly before it
disappears. I've also tried using changeProp in the body's onload
code to hide the target link, but it seems that whatever I have set
the property to in CSS Styles overrides whatever I do in the
onload. I've also tried controlling its visibility with the display
property with the same result. So far, I haven't found a way to
hide the target link before the page has loaded and then fade it to
0 before making it visible or in any other way to start the target
link hidden and have it appear when I click the link with the
AppearFade effect for it. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks for any help you can give me.

My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows). The key behaves the same for the laptop keyboard and for an external Apple keyboard? This just started in last week after 6 months of use

My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows).
The left shift key behaves the same on the laptop keyboard and on an external Apple keyboard.
This just started in last week after 6 months of use. The right shift key and other keys on the keyboard all appear to work correctly.
Suggestions greatly appreciated.

I have a solution to this issue now after a discussion with Apple Support. Some where in the last few weeks, there was a change in the key that would do a Show Desktop under the Mission Control settings in the System Preferences. Even though the key sequence that was shown for the Show Desktop setting did not include the Left SHift key, by changing this first to having no key sequence and applying that and then changing it back to the F11 key, the Left SHift key issue that I was having has cleared up.
A second issue that was uncovered was that the SSD had some issues (uncovered when I ran Disk Utility using the Repair Disk key). I had to restart and use the Disk Utility through the Command R sequence to get to the stand alone Disk Utility. The SSD appears to be running better as a result as well.
Hope that this is of use to someone else in the future.

How do you allow firefox to toggle show/hide menus

I am using a website that has a show/hide text toggle. When I click the show button, it opens a new blank tab. I tested this on google chrome as well and it works properly. There must be a setting in firefox to correct this but I don't know what it is.

Such a hide/show action is usually done via a JavaScript onclick event.
If you get a new tab or window then this would suggest that the onclick isn't working and that the href is used and opens the new tab.
You could check via the right-click context menu in the Inspector if there is an 'ev' button appended to this link (button).

Robo v9 Show/Hide without Twisties - One button no longer working

Hey there, as stated I am using Robo v9 with Show/Hide without Twisties (One button) with javascipts. We have most of our images using DHTML drop-downs and when folks click on "Show All Images" on the page, the GIF changes to "Hide All Images" and all drop-downs (our images) and expanding text are diaplayed.
It had been working all the time, but now it only works when I right click the topic in the TOC and choose "Edit Topic", then while in the Edit Window (Display view), when I do a View (Ctrl-W) and it displays the page within RoboHelp..I can click the "Show All Images" and it works like it always had. BUT, if that page is not in the Edit Window, and I right click "Preview Topic", the click "Show All Images" (or on the DHTML dropdown itself) it will NOT show the images, *but the GIF image does properly toggle to "Hide All Images" (and if I do again, then it properly toggles to the "Show All Images" GIF, if I do it again), but now NO images are getting displayed for some reason. It also NEVER works properly when I publish to our website (even when clicking the DHTML dropdown itself), but the GIF images toggle properly.
If I right click and choose "Preview Topic" and click "View With" and use Internet Explorer 8 it still never works anymore, unless the topic is in the Edit Window (Display View), so I know the issue is not on the server. It stops working after I do a generate and run on my pc. Also when I view it IE8 within Robo (and Allow the Blocked Content to run the scripts), many instances of the same error is shown as:
Message: Access is denied.
Line: 2646
Char: 3
Code: 0
URI: file:///D:/Users/_RBH9_TPO-Generate/v9-testing/ehlpdhtm.js
...but I *do* have access to the folder system, but in checking the coding of the ehlpdhtm.js, that area show, where I believe line 2646, character 3 starts at the "values = getAttribute(element, prop );" line below...but maybe something does not exist:
==
//End HTML code invoked function
function InitEffect( element, prop )
var values = null;
if( getAttribute(element,prop))
values = getAttribute(element, prop );
else if( getAttribute( element, "currentStyle" ) && element.currentStyle.getAttribute)
values = element.currentStyle.getAttribute( prop );
else if (element.style.getAttribute)
values = element.style.getAttribute( prop );
if( !values )
return;
var functions = new Array();

I have a much older backup when restored, it all works properly again in all cases, but I have done so much work since then that I think would need to be manually redone. I have played with keeping those some javascipts alone (in case I changed something) and updated the rest of the data files I had added, deleted the .CPD file, but it somehow stops working again, probably with some updated file. I am not sure what specific files could be causing the negative impact that is preventing it from working. Maybe if I knew what files could impact, I couldrestore those from my old backup. The newer backups when restored do not work properly, so there was a point in time where something changed and is causing this.
All prior versions of RoboHelp (v7 and v8) have always worked and still do. I am using v9.0.1.262, as the latest version has not yet been allowed on our pcs (per security), but since my earlier backup works, I thought it may not be the issue, but wanted to tell you anyway. ;->
Any ideas on how I should proceed? What files may have impact to cause it not to work anymore? The showhide.js is the only .js to show up as a baggage file. Also, the DHTML line does exits in each html page's code, as we are still using Robo v7 as the production software and the Show/Hide always works, and I copy them into the respective Robo v9 folders (and if new, then I copy them, then import them), otherwise the newer v7 updated pages are copied over the older v9 html files while RoboHelp is closed.
Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!

I may have figured out what to fix to get v9 back to working on the Show/Hide button, but not the "why?" .
It looks to all be dealing with the Robo automatic html coding of where to locate the .js file(s)...here is a quick overview of this issue and what I did. When I view the non-working pages within Internet Explorer 8 within Robo (and Allow the Blocked Content to run the scripts), I saw many instances of the same error is shown as this in the log, which implied since I *do* have access rights, maybe the file was just not being found.
Message: Access is denied.

Code: 0
URI: file:///D:/Users/_RBH9_TPO-Generate/v9-testing/ehlpdhtm.js
OK, here are my findings. EXAMPLE #1 and EXAMPLE #2 below are excerpts of the same file. EXAMPLE #1 is from Robo v7 and is copied to the v9 folder after it was updated so our soon to be "production" webhelp will be from Robo v9 (instead of making the same manual updates in Robo v9 as in Robo v7, I copy the updated the .html file to the Robo v9 file system). Note the direction of the directory slashes of the java scripts listed below, as they are all DOS type slashes (back slashes), EXCEPT for ehlpdhtm.js as it is the ONLY one using UNIX (forward) slashes.
EXAMPLE #1 (from Robo v7)
==
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="..\..\sty-std-topic.css">
<script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript x-save-method=compute-relative
src="..\..\showhide.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<robohelp><script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript1.2 src="../../ehlpdhtm.js"
x-save-method=compute-relative></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript1.2>

</script>
==
EXAMPLE #2(from Robo v9)
This is from the restored backup of the Robo v9 files that always work when I restore them, and note they are ALL UNIX (forward) slashes. These backup files were generated from Importing/Upgrading a copy of the Robo v7 files into Robo v9.
++
<title>[Endpoint Protection] Symantec Overview</title>
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="../../sty-std-topic.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="../../showhide.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
<?rh-script_start ?><script src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
</script><?rh-script_end ?>
++
Additional info: The following is from another file from the Robo v9 backup files that always WORK and once again they are ALL UNIX (forward) slashes.
~~
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="../../sty-std-topic.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="../../showhide.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
<?rh-script_start ?><script src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
</script><?rh-script_end ?>
~~
BUT since all .js files are referenced in EXAMPLE #1 have DOS slashes (back slashes), EXCEPT for the ehlpdhtm.js, I decided to change the line in ehlpdhtm.js FROM src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" TO src="..\..\ehlpdhtm.js" and IT (this one page) BEGAN WORKING AGAIN after I published. So having all DOS back slashes DOES work in Robo v9!!!! BUT it appears that Robo v9 only generates new pages using UNIX (forward) slashes in ALL coding. I've read about issues like this occurring with the FireFox browser, but we only use IE8, and have not read anything like this related to IE8 issues.
So if all UNIX forward slashes and all DOS back slashes can work in Robo v9 in finding and using ehlpdhtm.js, (the Show/Hide buttons function properly) why is this problem existing in Robo v9 when there are mixed "slashes" (using forward and backward)? ...and the mixed slashes ALWAYS works in Robo v7! They do not have to all be in the same direction in Robo v7 as it appears to have to be in the newer/more advanced Robo v9. Why does it matter that all slashes need to be all the same direction, if Robo v9 CAN actually read and figure out the DOS back slashes (formatted by Robo v7 creation) and actually generates UNIX forward slashes for the .js files in new Robo v9 output within the .html?
More importantly will I have to always do a Global search and replace in Robo v9 to change the direction of the "back slashes" when I copy updated Robo v7 .html files into the Robo v9 folders (instead of manually reworking each change), while in transition from v7 to v9?
Thanks in advance any information, recommendations, and feedback as your time is greatly appreciated!

Making links that show/hide layers?

Hi all,
I created an InDesign cs4 file which is pretty much a guide for users of my liveCicle form. I have a bunch of layers in the file.
I'm trying to make links associated with images that are in its own layers. So when i export the file to pdf and hit certain link, layer associated with that link shows up. I tryed to do this in acrobat 9 pro. I created links, but the problem is that links in non visible layers work behind the scene when i hover over.
Is there a way to set layer visability in inDesign CS4?
Thanks in advance

No you can´t toggle layer visibility with buttons made in indesign. You have to finish it in Acrobat....
Only way to make something appear or disappear in ID is to use show/hide buttons action...
You can convert those images you want to show&hide to buttons. Then you can create another buttons to show or hide them.
If you export as PDF, default state of a button can be hidden...

FM9 crash during show/hide of conditional text

I'm having a vexing problem with two of my chapters: whenever I attempt to show/hide the conditions, FM9 crashes with "Internal Error 9004, 6921852, 9677150, 0. Framemaker has detected a serious problem and must quit".
A few things I've tried (as culled from posts on here):
Updating to FrameMaker p250 from p237
Saving as .mif, then opening and saving as .fm
Changing the conditions on all chapters with the book open
It's somewhat unpredictable. Saving as a .mif, then opening and saving as .fm worked once, but after performing an edit to the doc, it crashed again when toggling the conditions. Similarly, changing the conditions to all chapters with the book open seemed to avoid a crash, but trying it again crashed when it reached the problem chapter.
It's definietly something in the file, as my co-worker will occasionally get the crashes with the the same chapters when showing/hiding conditions, but not always.
Other details:
My XP installation is up to date with all the Microsoft updates
I'm using FM9 (unstructured)
The docs in question are not "fresh" per se, but have been upgraded from FM8 to FM9
Also:
Our documents have conditions A, B, C, and D.
In previous versions of Frame, we had been using the shuttle box interface for showing/hiding conditions: show A and B, hide C and D.
Starting with FM8, we started using equivalent logical expressions: NOT "C" AND NOT "D".
The crashing appears *not* to occur if I use the shuttle box interface. However, I'm told that we have use the logical expressions for some reason.
Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks!

SOLVED
Here's my fix for Internal Error: 9004, 6921852, 9677150, 0 when saving as PDF, printing PDF, or printing to PS from FrameMaker 9 using Acrobat 9. YMMV.
I could not reproduce this Internal Error: 9004, 6921852, 9677150,0 when using conditions, so I do not know if this solution fixes the condition-provoked instance of Internal Error: 9004, 6921852, 9677150, 0.
Anyway, I uninstalled FM, rebooted, searched for leftover files, deleted them, rebooted, uninstalled Acrobat Pro Extended 9, searched for leftover files and registry entries, deleted them (probably missed a few), rebooted, removed the Xerox Phaser PS printer driver for my local printer (because it was PostScript, figured I should), rebooted, installed the Xerox Phaser PS driver, rebooted, installed FrameMaker, rebooted, installed Acrobat Pro Extended 9, rebooted, installed each patch for FrameMaker and Acrobat Pro Extended 9, rebooted, installed the MS Hotfix discussed here (http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/2008/07/hotfix_for_framemaker_1.html), and rebooted.
All is now well for making PDFs.

Show/hide in an ADDT form

has anyone successfully used a show/hide script of any kind in an ADDT form?
What I'm trying to do is, I've got Yes and No radio buttons. If Yes is clicked, a text box appears in the row below.
If No is clicked, no change occurs.
I had one that was working but now all of the sudden it is no longer working. What happens now is when you arrive on the page, the text box that is supposed to be hidden, is visible. However, when you click No, it disappears and if you click Yes, it reappears.
Below is the code. I'm thinking there must be a conflict between the javascript code below and ADDT. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function showhide1(id,str)
    if (document.getElementById)
        obj = document.getElementById(id);
        if (str == "show") //obj.style.display == none
            obj.style.display = "";
        else if (str == "none")
            obj.style.display = "none";
</script>
<tr><td align="right">Will anyone in your party require translation services at Open House?</td> <td> <input type="radio" name="translation" value="Yes" onClick="showhide1('display','show');">Yes<input type="radio" name="translation" value="No" checked onClick="showhide1('display','none');">No</td></tr>
        <tr id="display"><td align="right" > In what Language? </td> <td> <font color="red">*</font> <input type="text" name="language"></td></tr>

OK, I added a function that fires on page load so that the conditional row will be displayed if the Yes radio button has been checked.You should now remove the CSS rule for the conditional row. I tested the code with Firefox 3 and IE8 and it works but it is by no means complete.
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = showRow;
function showRow() {
if (document.getElementById("radioYes").checked)
{document.getElementById("display").style.display = ""}
else
{document.getElementById("display").style.display = "none"};
function showhide1(id,str)
    if (document.getElementById)
        var obj = document.getElementById(id);
        if (str == "show") //obj.style.display == none
            obj.style.display = "";
        else if (str == "none")
            obj.style.display = "none";
</script>
The HTML code for the two table rows should now be:
<tr><td align="right">Will anyone in your party require translation services at Open House?</td>
<td><input name="translation" type="radio" onClick="showhide1('display','show');" value="Yes" checked="checked" id="radioYes">Yes
<input type="radio" name="translation" value="No" id="radioNo" onClick="showhide1('display','none');" >No</td></tr>
<tr id="display">
<td align="right">In what Language?</td>
<td><font color="red">*</font>
<input type="text" name="language"></td></tr>

Show/Hide a column in a Table region

I have search page which queries the data and displays the records in a table region. We need to have an option to show or hide a non-database column at the end of the each row in the table. If the checkbox is selected, the last column should appear and if checkbox is deselected it should get disappeared.
I have used a transient attribute in the VO and using that transient attribute trying to show the text field when the checkbox is selected. For ex, if the search returns 6 rows - if you select the checkbox of the first row , the last column "CTS" gets displayed without any issues but if you select the other rows (without checking the first row), the CTS column is not displayed.
The column is getting displayed only IF you select the checkbox of the first row and try it other rows. If you try to select the checkbox of other rows without selecting the 1st row, it doesnt show the CTS column.
AM has the PPR event
=============
public void CheckOnClick(String v_chkBox,String SalesContact,Boolean executeQuery)
System.out.println("Enters Checkbox event()");
USSContactMainVOImpl pVO= getUSSContactMainVO1();
Row poRow[]=pVO.getFilteredRows("Chkbox","Y"); // get all the selected rows
for(int i=0;i<poRow.length;i++ )
Row rowi=poRow;
System.out.println("Value:" + rowi.getAttribute("Chkbox") );
rowi.setAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR",Boolean.TRUE); // transient attr
//end of CheckOnClick()

I just referred to the Dev Guide and understand that we can use the identifier of the PPR event source row (Page 262) but still the issue persists.
String rowReference = pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_SOURCE_ROW_REFERENCE);
I have a rawtext as the first column( its just a dummy column since the PPR event is not getting fired if the checkbox is the 1st control/column) and the 2nd column is the check box which has a PPR event. The PPR event fires whenever the check box is selected or deselected but surprising the text field gets editable only if the 1st row is clicked.
Changed code is as always - not sure why the table shows/hides the text column only if the 1st column is selected. Will appreciate any help.
PFR:
===
if ("OnSelect".equals(pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_PARAM)))
OAApplicationModule am = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
System.out.println("The AM name is "+am);
Boolean executeQuery = BooleanUtils.getBoolean(false);
String str1 = pageContext.getParameter("Check_Box");
String v_SalesContact = pageContext.getParameter("SalesContact_qry");
//1401
String rowReference = pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_SOURCE_ROW_REFERENCE);
Serializable[] parameters = {str1,v_SalesContact,rowReference,executeQuery };//1401
Class[] paramTypes = { String.class,String.class,String.class,Boolean.class };//1401
am.invokeMethod("CheckOnClick",parameters,paramTypes);
AM(PPR Event)
==========
public void CheckOnClick(String v_chkBox,String SalesContact,String rowReference,Boolean executeQuery)
OARow rowx = (OARow)findRowByRef(rowReference);
if (rowx !=null){
System.out.println("row ref");
System.out.println("reo fref"+ rowx.getAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR") );
rowx.setAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR",Boolean.TRUE);

Show/hide behavior is gray

I have a series of VERY simply constructed pages to which I
would like to add hidden layers that appear on selection of text.
Two things seem out of the ordinary to me. First, my behaviors menu
doesn't allow me to select "show/hide layer." I haven't run into
this problem on other pages I've built recently (for example,
http://www.allnumbedup.com/numb/cart.shtml).
Secondly, none of my layers show up in the "Layers" panel, so that
I cannot toggle the eye icon.
Any ideas why this is happening? An example can be found at
http://www.karisteeves.net/lying/hurricane.shtml
The layer in question appears at the top of the page with a
painting by Titian in it. I'd like to position it absolutely at
some point.
Many thanks for any light you can shed.
Kari

And by the way, you'd be well advised to give layers a
complete 'bye' until
you have a better grasp of all the reasons why you WOULDN'T
want to use
them! Here's one of the more important ones -

Show/hide layer bug PS 12.01.x64?

I know that you OPT-Cllick on the eyeball to show or hide multiple layers in PS on the Mac. I could hide all by OPT-clicking on one eyeball. But OPT-Clicking it again did not show all the hidden layers again. It did nothing. Even after several reboots.I had to manually turn on all the layers.
But then I CONTROL-Clicked on the eyeball to bring up the context menu, which said "Show/Hide all layers" and somehow that woke up the show/hide function when OPT-Clicking on an eyeball. So now everything works normally. The FNCT-Click (or right mouse button) on the eyeball has become a switch to turn on the OPT-Click behavior.
Anyone else notice this?
Thanks

The second Option+Eyeball click is a not a "show hidden layers" command, it goes to the previous state of visible layers... so if you opt+eyeball+click to just see one layer, then for whatever reason make another layer visible, or hide that layer and make another visible, or if you manually hid all but one layer, then that second opt+eyeball+click will appear not to work (if your expectation is to have all the layers become visible)
Kind of a convoluted answer there! But try that out and see if that is what you are experiencing.
I think at one point, quite a few versions ago, the opt+eyeball+click was a "show this layer/show all hidden layers" command. But Adobe changed the behavior because the second opt+click would make every layer visible, including the layers you had intentionally hidden.

Layers show hide in Firefox/Netscape

Uploaded new page to server with layers hide / show for
rollovers. Works great in IE the rollovers are excessible. However
!! The are not working in Firefox or Netscape. The appear when
rolling over but do not stay showing for me to click on the image
maps. I am sure there is one little peice of code that needs
tweeking but cannot find it.
Please help I have the pages LIVE!!!
Thanks

Rather than use layers and as your site appears to be table
based - you
could try this tut........

you might find other tuts - just google 'disjointed

DW: Show-Hide Layers

Hey, I’m having two issues with the Show-Hide Layers
behaviour in Dreamweaver and was wondering if someone else has had
the same problems and has a solution.
My test page is
http://www.petermcphee.com/dreamweaver/popup-layer.html
1) What I would like is to show the layer when the link is
hovered over, which works fine. However, I also want the layer to
remain visible while the mouse is over the layer and disappear when
the mouse leaves the layer.
I Googled for a while and found some tutorials that deal with
showing/hiding layers but they hide the layers once the mouse
leaves the original link, not the layer.
2) Also, the site that I want to apply this behaviour to has
an auto centering wrapper box, so I would like the layer to popup
right underneath the link every time without converting the entire
site to absolute positioning. As it is now, the popup appears at
different locations depending how wide my browser is.
Is this even possible with the current DW functionality?
Thanks a lot!
Peter.

When you show the layer, also show an underlying layer that
contains a
transparent GIF image that is about 10px wider/taller than
the layer you
show. Apply a hide layer behavior to the GIF image that hides
both the
layer you just showed, and the underlying layer. Remove the
mouseout hide
event from the original trigger. Does that make sense?

Change this -
</head>
to this -
<style type="text/css">

</style>
</head>
change this -
<body ...>
to this -
<body ...>
<div id="wrapper">
and this -
</body>
to this -

</div>
</body>
and see if that helps.

Disjointed Rollovers with show / hide layers

Creating a series of thumnails on a page which, when clicked
on, will bring up full size image in one spot and relevant text in
another. I'm using Show / Hide Layers to do this. I've got it all
working fine except stumbling on one thing. Probably obvious.
The question I have is how to make the currently showing
layers go away when the user clicks on another thumbnail. If I was
using onMouseover and onMouseout then that would be simple. But I
can't figure out how to automatically make the layers currently
showing go back to being hidden when another thumbnail is clicked.
What I get instead is the new layers appearing on top of the old
ones and making a mess.
Probably an obvious solution, but my brain is not getting it
at the moment. Suggestions?
Thanks...

Don't use the show/hide at all. Use SetText of Layer to write
the required
content into a single layer.
Or - if you don't quite get that, just use PVII's AutoLayer
extension which
will show one and hide all the rest automatically.
