You cannot do that using a server side language like PHP. You must do it using Javascript, or another client side programming language.

Hello Jaffar, This particular site was created using PHP. Another site I have is .shtml. I was thinking JavaScript, but can this be done using PHP? This is where I could use some enlightenment as to the best language to use for creating such a function. Thanks.

The form will contain a select box with options the user must select. If the user selects the, "Other" option I want them to be able to enter the desired information in a text field to appear below the selection box. Otherwise I don't want this field to show if the, "Other" option is not selected. Can you point me to sources for scripting to perform this function within a form, or send me code samples of such forms? I'll appreciate that very much.
