title: Show an Anchor tag in an ASP.Net page with JQuery
body: <p>I've got an ASP.Net page in which I have an html anchor tag and I've set the visible property to false.  I want to make it visible with JQuery, but can't seem to get it to work.  I've tried to use the selector for the anchor tag itself, and also a class selector, but neither has any effect.  Here is the markup for the anchor tag:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a runat="server" class="reg" visible="false" id="RegisterSoftwareTab" href="../RegisterSoftware.aspx"&gt;Register Software&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And here is the JQuery code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;script type="text/javascript" &gt;
      $(document).ready(function() {
          $('a').attr("visible", "true");
          $('a').show();
          $('.reg').attr("visible", "true");
          $('.reg').show();
      });
  &lt;/script&gt;
  </code></pre>
