The only reason I can see that the div will always appear is a logic error. Are you sure that the $erros['anexo'] variable is not set at some point and not just set to an empty string? An empty string is very different from an unset variable. Try using var_dump($erros['anexo']); in your code somewhere to see if the it is actually an empty string instead.
