Display The Text Box when one value is selected

[Technos]

Hi,
I want to display the text box when a value"other" is selected from the combo box. Do I need to write Jscript? If yes How?

Here is my code...
<form method=post name=&quot;myForm&quot; id=&quot;myForm&quot;>
<select style=&quot;width:90%;&quot; id=&quot;subject1&quot; name=&quot;subject1&quot;>

<option selected>Select topic...</option>
<option value=&quot;security&quot;>Security</option>
<option value=&quot;Community&quot;>Change Community</option>
<option value=&quot;Memberships&quot; >Change Memberships</option>
<option value=&quot;Other&quot; >Other ...</option>
</select>

Here is my question

if option value = Other then only the following subject text field should be visible otherwise hidden.

<input id=subject name=subject value=&quot;&quot;>


Please Help ( Thanks

This should work for you

<script language=javascript>
function ShowMe(theField)
{
if (theField.value==&quot;Other&quot
{document.form1.subject.style.display=&quot;&quot;
}
else
{document.form1.subject.style.display=&quot;none&quot;
}

}
</script>

<form method=post name=&quot;myForm&quot; id=&quot;myForm&quot;>
<select style=&quot;width:90%;&quot; id=&quot;subject1&quot; name=&quot;subject1&quot; onchange=&quot;ShowMe(this)&quot;>
<option selected>Select topic...</option>
<option value=&quot;security&quot;>Security</option>
<option value=&quot;Community&quot;>Change Community</option>
<option value=&quot;Memberships&quot; >Change Memberships</option>
<option value=&quot;Other&quot; >Other ...</option>
</select>

input id=subject name=subject value=&quot;&quot; style=&quot;display:none&quot;>
