Hide Layer not working as expected

[kuul13]

Hi

I was working on photoshop CS3 with multiple layers and suddenly something weird happened.. Whenever I try to hide just one layer (by checking the checkbox infront of a layer in layer palette), photoshop hides everything in workarea... although in layerp palette only one layer is selected for hide. Please help me .. I don't want to redesign (

Check to make sure you aren't linking the layers. If they are linked, when you hide one, you hide all the linked ones.
