    Calc instead of element jscript to hide/show

    Hi Sorry if this is a basic question but I wanted to know if it makes sense to show/hide elements using calc (so it shows based on the value of another element, or shows nothing instead). This seems to work better than element javascript as it doesnt go throught the hide/show process. I have...
