[html] How can I hide an HTML table row <tr> so that it takes up no space?

How can I hide an HTML table row <tr> so that it takes up no space? I have several <tr>'s set to style="display:none;", but they still affect the size of the table and the table's border reflects the hidden rows.

You need to put the change the input type to hidden, all the functions of it work but it is not visible on the page

<input type="hidden" name="" id="" value="">

as long as the input type is set to that you can change the rest. Good Luck!!

HTML:

<input type="checkbox" id="attraction" checked="checked" onchange="updateMap()">poi.attraction</input>

JavaScript:

function updateMap() {
     map.setOptions({'styles': getStyles() });
} 

function getStyles() {
    var styles = [];
    for (var i=0; i < types.length; i++) {
      var style = {};
      var type = types[i];
      var enabled = document.getElementById(type).checked;
      style['featureType'] = 'poi.' + type;
      style['elementType'] = 'labels';
      style['stylers'] = [{'visibility' : (enabled ? 'on' : 'off') }];
      styles.push(style);
    }
    return styles;
}

var result_style = document.getElementById('result_tr').style;
result_style.display = '';

is working perfectly for me..

You can set

<table>
  <tr style="visibility: hidden"></tr>
</table> 

If display: none; doesn't work, how about setting height: 0; instead? In conjunction with a negative margin (equal to, or greater than, the height of the top and bottom borders, if any) to further remove the element? I don't imagine that position: absolute; top: 0; left: -4000px; would work, but it might be worth a try.

For my part, using display: none works fine.

Thought I'd add to this a potential other solution:

<tr style='visibility:collapse'><td>stuff</td></tr>

I've only tested it on Chrome but putting this on the <tr> hides the row PLUS all the cells inside the row still contribute to the widths of the columns. I will sometimes make an extra row at the bottom of a table with just some spacers that make it so certain columns can't be less than a certain width, then hide the row using this method. (I know you're supposed to be able to do this with other css but I've never gotten that to work)

Again, I'm in a purely chrome environment so I have no idea how this functions in other browsers.

Add some of the following line-height:0px;font-size:0px;height:0px;margin:0;padding:0;

I forget which one does it. I think it's line-height for IE6.

I was having same problem and I resolved the issue. Earlier css was overflow:hidden; z-index:999999;

I change it to overflow:visible;

This happened to me and I was baffled as to why. Then I noticed that if i removed any nbsp; i had within the rows, then the rows didn't take up any space.

You can use style display:none with tr to hide and it will work with all browsers.

position: absolute will remove it from the layout flow and should solve your problem - the element will remain in the DOM but won't affect others.

I was having the same issue, I even added style="display: none" to each cell.

In the end I used HTML comments <!-- [HTML] -->

Can you include some code? I add style="display:none;" to my table rows all the time and it effectively hides the entire row.

You can set <tr id="result_tr" style="display: none;"> and then show it back with JavaScript:

var result_style = document.getElementById('result_tr').style;
result_style.display = 'table-row';
