jscript properties

I am trying to hide a field when value in combo box lists changes.
I am trying to find what is the property to hide the field because originally I got help to put this code together but it doesn't quite do what I need, as at the moment it disables or enables the field onchange event,but the field is enabled anyhow when I edit the page,so if I had value selected in the field where it disables the field and save it and edit it the field is not disabled because that only happens on onchange event and I still need it to be disabled whe edited,so I was thinking that hiding it would be a better idea alltogether,but once again have to find a way how to keep it hidden according to selection in the field when the field is edited as well.

function showChoice()
{
if (document.myForm.Commissionable.value == 'Yes') {
document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.enabled=true;
}
else {
document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.enabled=false;
}
}

I hope this makes sense and somebody can help.

Regards and thanks

Code:

function showChoice()
{
if (document.myForm.Commissionable.value == 'Yes') {
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.enabled=true;
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.style.visibility=visible;
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.display=block;
  }
else {
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.enabled=false; 
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.style.visibility=hidden;
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.display=none;
  }
}

  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.enabled=true;
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.style.visibility='visible';
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.style.display='block';  
  }
else {
  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.enabled=false;

  document.myForm.PropertyDetailsName.style.display='none';  
  }
}

Actually I can't find anything about this error I am not sure if it's the property that is used is not correct or if the field name is incorrect,but then that doesn't make sense

this is the line where the error is

window.thisForm.CommissionRate.style.visibility=hi dden;

you might need to use quotes around it... actually the way I normally do it is to have a hidden and visible class defined in my stylesheet like this....

Code:

.Hidden
{
    DISPLAY: none;
    VISIBILITY: hidden
}
.Visible
{
    VISIBILITY: visible;
    DISPLAY: block;
}

Then I can just do this...

Code:

function showMemberAgreement() {
    var col = document.getElementById('MemberAgreement');
    if(col.className == 'Visible') {
        col.className = 'Hidden';
        col.style.display = 'none';
    }
    else {
        col.className = 'Visible';
        col.style.display = 'block';
    }
}
