Try wrapping the DIV in an HTML tag and using setVisible
See

http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/latest/com/google/gwt/user/client/ui/HTML.html#wrap%28com.google.gwt.dom.client.Element%29

So, it would be

HTML.wrap(Document.get().getElementById("theId")).setVisible(false);

To reiterate, this probably is not what you really want to be doing.
