A very good example of visibility by using 'display' can be found in the Yahoo Sports. Click on the 'today' or 'yesterday' on the Scoreboard to see the actions.

The core difference between display and visibility is that:
display:block|none: the element NOT to be displayed <div style="display:none;">item</div> will be evicted from the place which would occupy;
visibility:visible|hidden: the element NOT to be visible <div style="visibility:hidden;">item</div> will preserve the place which occupied. Actually, the name 'invisible' speaks itself quite well.
