Question

I want the visibility:visible to stay, where currently it flashes momentarily then disappears.

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#subscribe').click(function(e) {
        $('#joinThanks').css('visibility', 'visible');
    })
    e.stopPropagation();
});​

Any ideas?

thank guys.

Answer 1

The e.stopPropagation() call should go inside the click handler:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#subscribe').click(function(e) {
        e.stopPropagation();
        $('#joinThanks').css('visibility', 'visible');
    })
});​

The syntax error this generated may have caused the odd behaviour you saw.
