How to initialize textbox to hide for first display and still have jquery work
<p>So I now have the following jquery to hide or show a textbox based on specific values selected in a DropDownList.  This works except that I need the first display of the popup to always be hidden.  Since no index change was made in the drop down list, the following does not work for that.  If I code it as visible="false", then it always stays hidden.  How can I resolve this?</p>

<pre><code>&lt;script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"&gt;

     var _CASE_RESERVE_ACTION = "317"; 
     var _LEGAL_RESERVE_ACTION = "318";

     function pageLoad() {

         $(".statusActionDDLCssClass").change(function() {
             var value = $(this).val();
             if (value == _CASE_RESERVE_ACTION || value == _LEGAL_RESERVE_ACTION) {
                 $(".statusActionAmountCssClass").attr("disabled", false);
                 $(".statusActionAmountCssClass").show();
             }
             else {
                 $(".statusActionAmountCssClass").attr("disabled", true);
                 $(".statusActionAmountCssClass").hide();
             }
         });
     }

&lt;/script&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Thank you,
