Browser.setVisible() should work for you:

public static void main(String args[]) {
Display display = new Display();
final Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setLayout(new GridLayout());
Button button = new Button(shell, SWT.PUSH);
button.setText("Push");
final Browser browser = new Browser(shell, SWT.NONE);
browser.setLayoutData(new GridData(300,300));
browser.setUrl("eclipse.org");
button.addListener(SWT.Selection, new Listener() {
public void handleEvent(Event event) {
browser.setVisible(!browser.getVisible());
}
});
shell.open();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch()) display.sleep();
}
display.dispose();
}

Hi,

Browser.setVisible(false) will hide the browser. It works for me on Windows Xp & Mac OSX. Which platform and SWT version are you using?
Shell.setVisible(false) also works fine. If you have a shell.open() after it then it would make the shell visible.
