Hi,

Problem with the following code for simple Div show or hide:
Second click is not possible.  Tested against Firefox 17 and Chrome 23 (both on Windows 7).

What's wrong?  Am I missing something obvious?

Please note, I'm using double ## here instead of a single # because the server side scripting language, ColdFusion or Railo that I'm using, consider # as a special symbol, so, I'm using double ## to escape to one.

<div><a href="##sh" onclick="if (document.getElementById('t').style.display='none'){document.getElementById('t').style.display='inline';}else{alert('2nd test click called');document.getElementById('t').style.display='none';}">test div show/hide</a></div>

<div id="t" style="display:none">test data</div>

Many thanks.
