As for what google can differentiate - they've got better accuity then people give them credit for.
Sorry I didnt see you had answered.I didnt think anyone would be here on sunday morning.

Yes its legit code. Its for a css menu system. The show/hide functions would be in an external style sheet. And would just show a sub menu on mouseover of a main category.

Alot of sites use that kind of thing, including sites like Macromedia etc, so I think you are probably right to give google more credit on its ability to distinguish between hidden text that is legit or not.
