This is a bit over my head at the moment.  I don't know much JS, just enough
to be dangerous.

If I remove the "old showHide function"...

function showHide (id)
{ 
 var style = document.getElementById(id).style
 if (style.visibility == "hidden")
  style.visibility = "visible";
 else  
  style.visibility = "hidden";
}

...the show/hide functionality no longer works?
