Question

I have made a JavaScript script which will scan through a webpage for all of the .gif files and set their visibility properties to "hidden". This allows me to select what type of image I want to show on my page… I used this code:

function makeAllGIF(){
    var x = document.getElementsByTagName("img");
    for(i = 0 ; i < x.length; i++){
        var y = x.item(i);
        if(y.getAttribute("src").match("gif") != null){
            y.style.visibility = "visible";
        }
        else{
            y.style.visibility = "hidden";
        }
    }
}

Changing the code to

function makeAllGIF(){
    var x = document.getElementsByTagName("img");
    for(i = 0 ; i < x.length; i++){
        var y = x.item(i);
        if(y.getAttribute("src").match("gif") != null){
            y.style.display = "normal";
        }
        else{
            y.style.display = "none";
        }
    }
}

works fine.

Set the attribute display: none on your images.
