    Ignore is not the same as "display: none". The contents of form 
elements that are "ignored" are not submitted, and scripting that is 
"ignored" is not executed. The tag if for both presentational AND 
functional suppression. It also has a semantic meaning, which is that 
the contents should be ignored. In fact, the UA could theoretically 
render the contents of an <ignore> element as inactive rather than 
invisible.
