Bixy,

They don't work if you've hidden the element in the CSS stylesheet.
Element.show() only works when the element is by default visible, but was
also hidden with JavaScript.

That is good practice to follow - if you're going to show it with
JavaScript, make sure you hide it with JavaScript and not by CSS
stylesheets. If the element should initially be hidden, use:

  document.observe("dom:loaded", function(){
    $("foo").hide()
  })

If CSS is hiding it, you must show it by explicitly setting style.display to
"block".
