if the user chooses Prompt A then I want either one or the other to happen:

1) they go to another prompt page where the next set of prompts/questions are applicable depending on their choice in step 1
2) or if i could hide or make appear those prompts that are applicable when they choose Prompt A over Prompt B for example.

So, either take them to a new prompt page or just hide or show the next set of prompts.
 
1) This is kwown as 'cascading prompts' Look for 'cascade source' in the prompt properties. Basically the first prompt acts like a filter for populating the second one

2. Prompts can be set to be optional, but AFAIK you will need JAVA code to really make them disappear from the GUI
