As far a working with the Yes/No radio buttons as generated from the
radio button control on this page, the following worked well, and did
not appear to be too slow. Fortunetly what I am during my event
modifying is a Div tag, and not an item generated by a .net control.
For that reason I can bind to it using the #id syntax:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('[EMAIL PROTECTED]').click(function() {
$('#divContainAnswer').hide();
});
$('[EMAIL PROTECTED]').click(function() {
$('#divContainAnswer').show();
});
});
