    You should never use the javascript: pseudoprotocol. Use the click event for this. Besides, also watch the quotes.

    Here’s the correct approach:

    <a href="#" onclick="document.getElementById('create_table').style.display='block'; return false;">Insert Table</a>

    Note that I (optionally) returned false here to block the default action.
