Ok so im using this script "not mines so you can copy and use it if you wish" but it doesnt work how it should be working

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"><!--function HideContent(div) {document.getElementById(div).style.display = "none";}function ShowContent(div) {  document.getElementById(div).style.display = "block";  }  function ReverseDisplay(div) {   if(document.getElementById(div).style.display == "none") {   document.getElementById(div).style.display = "block";   }   else {   document.getElementById(div).style.display = "none";   }   }   //--></script>

i followed everything step by step and still it doesnt work as it should, when i click on the next which is home it shows the first button which is subject

<div class="jsmenu">  <ul>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div1')">Lost</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div2')">Found</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div3')">Place</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div4')">Cover</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div5')">Welcome</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div6')">Busy</a></li>  </ul>  </div><!-- jsmenu -->  <div id="div1" style="display:block;">gallery one goes here</div><!-- gallery 1 -->  <div id="div2" style="display:none;">gallery two goes here</div><!-- gallery 2 -->  <div id="div3" style="display:none;">gallery three goes here</div><!-- gallery 3 -->  <div id="div4" style="display:none;">gallery four goes here</div><!-- gallery 4 -->  <div id="div5" style="display:none;">gallery five goes here</div><!-- gallery 5 -->  <div id="div6" style="display:none;">gallery six goes here</div><!-- gallery 6 -->

not sure what i am doing wrong, considering i have no knowledge on javascript, switch the hover to this click as was suggested by a member, kindly help if you know what im doing wrong ok so i got the tabs to show ever page number, but when i click on tab "found" then click back on tab "lost" on tab "lost" both tab "found and lost" gets display on tab "lost" 0.o

DDs, Are you simply trying to show one div when clicking on it and closing all the others? If so, here's a suggestion if you're interested:

<!doctype html><html><head><title>DDs1</title><script type="application/javascript">function ShowContent(div){  document.getElementById(div).style.display = "block";  var divs = document.getElementsByTagName('div');  for(var i = 0; i < divs.length; i++)  {   if(divs[i].id != div && divs[i].className != 'jsmenu')   divs[i].style.display = "none";   } } </script> </head><body><div class="jsmenu">  <ul>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div1')">Lost</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div2')">Found</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div3')">Place</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div4')">Cover</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div5')">Welcome</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div6')">Busy</a></li>  </ul>  </div><!-- jsmenu -->   <div id="div1" style="display:block;">gallery one goes here</div><!-- gallery 1 -->  <div id="div2" style="display:none;">gallery two goes here</div><!-- gallery 2 -->  <div id="div3" style="display:none;">gallery three goes here</div><!-- gallery 3 -->  <div id="div4" style="display:none;">gallery four goes here</div><!-- gallery 4 -->  <div id="div5" style="display:none;">gallery five goes here</div><!-- gallery 5 -->  <div id="div6" style="display:none;">gallery six goes here</div><!-- gallery 6 --> </body> </html>

Black page? That's strange. The code works perfectly for me as intended in Chrome and Firefox and not getting any errors from Firebug. When I click on Lost, 'gallery one goes here' shows. When I click on Found, 'gallery one goes here' disappears and instead 'gallery two goes here' appears. etc etc..

if(divs.id != div && divs.className != 'jsmenu') this is fine as long as don't have any other div containers, like wrapper etc, place a container around show/hide content and target the divs within that only.

<div class="jsmenu">  <ul>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div1')">Lost</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div2')">Found</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div3')">Place</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div4')">Cover</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div5')">Welcome</a></li>  <li><a href="javascript:ShowContent('div6')">Busy</a></li>  </ul>  </div><!-- jsmenu --> <div id="show_hide">  <div id="div1" style="display:block;">gallery one goes here</div><!-- gallery 1 -->  <div id="div2" style="display:none;">gallery two goes here</div><!-- gallery 2 -->  <div id="div3" style="display:none;">gallery three goes here</div><!-- gallery 3 -->  <div id="div4" style="display:none;">gallery four goes here</div><!-- gallery 4 -->  <div id="div5" style="display:none;">gallery five goes here</div><!-- gallery 5 -->  <div id="div6" style="display:none;">gallery six goes here</div><!-- gallery 6 --> </div>

function ShowContent(div){var parent_show_hide = document.getElementById("show_hide")var divs = parent_show_hide.getElementsByTagName('div');   for(var i = 0; i < divs.length; i++)  {   divs[i].style.display = "none";  }document.getElementById(div).style.display = "block";}

edit corrected , by removing id from <div id="show_hide"> and .document from var divs = parent_show_hide.getElementsByTagName('div');

I messed with it and got it to work via the code below if you're still interested. It worked for me based on your page etc.
