Details

Trying to assign the style property "display" to "none" on a normal paragraph
from JavaScript has no effect.
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
I'd like to pass this off to one of Troy, Nisheeth or Peter. We're going to need
to deal with attribute and style changes that involve deletion and creation of
frames. The display: none case is definitely a necessity for certain types of
applications. Who wants to taket this one?
Setting all current Open/Normal to M4.

Fixed a couple of weeks ago. I really need to scrub my list.

I've created the following code in order to reproduce the described failure:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>test.html</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<P id="p1">This is a paragraph.</P>
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("p1").style.display="none";
</SCRIPT>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Verified it works fine on 4/21 build.
