The error looks correct to me: You can't just throw in a <div> in the
middle of a table.



This would be what you're after I think:



<table>
<tr>
<td>Whatever One</td>
</tr>

<tr><td>

<div id="myPanel">

</td></tr>


<tr>
<td>Whatever Two</td>
</tr>
</div>
<table>

If your objective is to simply hide the row, you can do it this way:

<tr runat="server" ID="MyRow" Visible="true">...

Then, in the code-behind you can access the row as a server-side generic
html object, and set it's .visible property, like this:

MyRow.Visible = false;

Any time you add the runat="server" attribute to an HTML element, you can
then access it in your C# code-behind and control basic properties,
including .Visible.

Thanks to everyone for helping. A true education is starting.
