title: Why is visible="false" not working for a plain html table?
body: <p>The visible property of html table does not work. </p>
  
  <p>Why do they have that property if its defective? I had to use <code>style="visibility:hidden"</code> in order to hide a table. </p>
  
  <p>Please explain why. I am very curious</p>
  
  <p>Here's the code I'm using. The intention is to hide the table as a whole but its not hiding the table or the controls inside it</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;table visible="false"&gt;
    &lt;tr&gt;
      &lt;td &gt;
        &lt;label&gt;Pick the color for action needed and paste it on textbox&lt;/label&gt;
      &lt;/td&gt;
      &lt;td&gt;
        &lt;asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"&gt;&lt;/asp:TextBox&gt;
      &lt;/td&gt;
      &lt;td&gt;
        &lt;asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Apply color" /&gt;
      &lt;/td&gt;
    &lt;/tr&gt;
  &lt;/table&gt;
  </code></pre>
