No.)</p> <p>Here is my Code:</p> <p>&lt;script&gt;<br /> $(document).ready(function(){<br /> $("input[name$='element_24']").click(function(){<br /> var value = $(this).val();<br /> if(value=='1') {<br /> $('#li_3').show();<br /> $('#li_4').show();<br /> $('#li_5').show();<br /> $('#li_6').show();<br /> $('#li_25').hide();<br /> }<br /> else if(value=='2') {<br /> $('#li_25').show();<br /> $('#li_3').hide();<br /> $('#li_4').hide();<br /> $('#li_5').hide();<br /> $('#li_6').hide();<br /> }<br /> });<br /> $('#li_3').hide();<br /> $('#li_4').hide();<br /> $('#li_5').hide();<br /> $('#li_6').hide();<br /> $('#li_25').hide();<br /> });<br /> &lt;/script&gt;</p> <p>Now, here the problem: The yes and no part is working but When i click the other fields like 'name', 'department' and others, it shows the hidden fields.</p> <p>I've been trying to solve the problem but still no luck.</p> <p>Hope you can help.</p> <p>Thank you. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/checkbox-to-open-a-second-address-field#post-13459 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 05:14:27 +0000 jpello 13459@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Can this same code be used to add a field if a dropdown selection is selected?</p> <p>I.E.</p> <p>Do you play Golf?</p> <p>If Yes, show a text box where they put their handicap</p> <p>If No, do nothing </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/checkbox-to-open-a-second-address-field#post-11626 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 22:08:33 +0000 Radices 11626@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Ok thanks for the speedy reply. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/checkbox-to-open-a-second-address-field#post-11624 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 21:32:36 +0000 yuniar 11624@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I'm afraid setting the "required" rule for a field based on a checkbox won't be quite easy to do, since this would involve server side interaction, not just a simple javascript.</p> <p>Basically, you will need to do some ajax call when the checkbox being selected and the ajax need to modify the "required" value of the field.</p> <p>We won't be able to provide you with the code for this.
