As much as it hurts to say, the DW way is probably the
best/easiest/most productive path to take.Ya know what they say... if
it ain't broken, don't mess with it... if it works.. use it...

...i mean, you could always make it really elegant and use CSS...
hehe... have the javascript set the class display element to visible
or whatnot... rather than using document.write. :P

good luck making the call, tho. :)
