/*	show/hide functions (visibility set) v0.2
	It switches the visibility style property of objects based on their id.
	Example for mouse events:
		the pop (the element which will pop; the one which will be shown and/or hidden) will have an id like
			id="elementID_x"
		the trigger (link for example) should have the events
			onMouseOver="triggerShow ('elementID_x')"
			onMouseOut="triggerHide ('elementID_x')"
		the pop should also have these events
			onMouseOver="popKeep ('elementID_x')"
			onMouseOut="popLeave ('elementID_x')"	*/
