  Assuming checboxlist is the id of the control, try this code

  checkboxlist.style.display="none";

  Please understand that i want to do it client side using vbscript.

  And i want to set the enable property of checkboxlist to true or false

  Not setting the visibility to be hidden or not

   

  Thanks anyway

  Well Setting the display to none is a popular way of hiding it. Other wise some controls like text box have a property called disabled where setting it to true leaves it on the screen but grays it out

  textbox.disabled=true

  assuming textbox is the  client id of a text box

  See an example here http://www.quirksmode.org/js/disabled.html

  Try this as a CheckBoxList renders as a <table> tag:

  <script language="JavaScript">
  <!--
  function setCheckBoxList(enableOrDisable)
  {
   var tableRef = document.getElementById('<%= CheckBoxList1.ClientID %>');

   for (var i=0; i<tableRef.rows.length; i++)
   {
    for (var j=0; j<tableRef.rows[i].cells.length; j++)
    {
     var listControl = tableRef.rows[i].cells[j].childNodes[0];
     listControl.disabled = enableOrDisable;
    }
   }
  }
  // -->
  </script>

  NC...
