changing specific div changes all of them

[Jonibean]

I have created a div.style in the stylesheet, hoping that I can use the same
style for my layers, which I want to turn on and off using show layer. They are
all meant to be in the same place on the page, and this has been working fine
until tonight.

Now, all of the sudden, every time I change the visibility of one layer, it
changes them all, which is not good. I have noticed that sometimes it will just
add the extra specifics to that particular div, and sometimes it changes the
whole style in the stylesheet. Why has this happened? Can't I just add the
visibility setting of that particular div and have it override the stylesheet?

thanks

I should clarify:

I have noticed, for some of my divs, I get code like this:
<div id="topnav" style="position:absolute; left:0px; top:0px; width:800px;
height:100px; z-index:3; visibility: visible;">

and others have code like this:
<div class="maincontentbox" id="profile">

The format seems to be different. What is causing the difference? In the top
one, the visibility stays as I want it, but in the other one it doesn't.

thanks again for any help.

Post a link to the page, please. It sounds like you may have nested your
layers.
