I need to set a flag or session variable to show/hide custom controls in my Xpage.  What is the best way to do this client side via a button in my custom contol?... without saving of course. :)

Re: Show/Hide Custom Controls
I do the following for the client side to hide the control:
 
onClick event CSJS: 
 
var clientID='#{javascript:getClientId("YOURCONTROLNAME")}';
if (document.getElementById(
clientID
).style.display=="none")

{
document.getElementById(
clientID
).style.display="block";

}
else{
document.getElementById(
clientID
).style.display="none";

};
 
And don't forget to 
- set "escape=true" so that the getClientId gets computed.
- set "do not submit" option
