The correct display type for <tr>s is table-row not inline, if you change their
display type they will naturally display differently. Since Internet Explorer
doesn't support display: table-row the best cross-browser solution is to swap
between display="none" and display="", e.g.:

document.getElementById('row2').style.display=show?'':'none'

p.s. See Bug 97506 for a related issue.
