The problem is how the select elements are addressed. Chuck didn't use a DOM
compatible addressing style.
I usually use something like:

            var selects = document.getElementsByTagName('select');
            for (var i = 0; i < selects.length; i++) {
                selects[i].style.visibility = 'hidden';
            }
 
This of course works only with DOM capable browsers, so you have to do this
more gracefully if it should work with all browsers (that are able to hide
elements at runtime). Additionally you'll have to explicitely set a positive
z-index to the dhtml layer to avoid interference with other form elements in
Moz.
