Terry:

I don't know about objects, but you can do what you described above 
several ways:

1. With ajax you can change the html between divs.

2. With css you can absolutely position both and then swap with a 
style switcher.

3. With css you can use the visibility attribute showing both 
combinations and then change visibility/hidden with a style switcher.

4. Or, you can do it like this via js:
