how to hide a tag and not mess up the alignment

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="5" width="100%">


                                                      <tr height="20" valign="top">
                                                            <td align="right" >
                                                                  <span class="required">*</span>Size:
                                                            </td>
                                                            <td>
                                                                  <input id="SizeWhole" class="inputBox" value="" size="5" />
                                                                  

                                                                  <span id="spntest1">

                                                                  <aramark:test1/> 

                                                                  </span>

                                                                  <component:test >
                                                            </td>
                                                      </tr>

            </table>

I have the above html. I use javascript/dhtml and hide the span tag spnTest1and increase the size of SizeWhole to 8. As a result alignment of the component:test gets
messed up . How can I do a fixed alignment to the <component:test> even if I hide the spnTest1 tag and change the size of the SizeWhole textbox ?

Hello tech_question,

Instead of hiding the <span id="spntest1"> with display you could toggle the visiblity instead? This way the layout should stay the same
