Hello Terrance
I have a query; what if the data fields that are allowed to show are required? I have tried the code above which works. However, when clicking the radio button option that does not require the drop down, after filling in the form, the hidden fields are still 'required' and so the sender is being shown an error.
Do you have a solution to that problem?
Thank you.

Thank you very much for the code. It was very useful to me as I needed to create a form with the possibility to show or hide components depending on the user's choices.

Nice script!

I've got a question:

This function only works with items when I try it. Is there a way to make it work with tabel elements? ()

Great post! I have a similar problem: I want to show different form fields based on a drop-down selection. Ex:

Selection = bank account:
- Show account number, routing number, checking/saving

Selection = debit/credit card:
- Show card number, expiry month, expiry year, CVV

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

this code introduces the first radio button as a usable ID element, instead of it being empty.

Real good help! I'm finding it hard to make it remember the 3rd Radio Button with cookie upon refresh. It gets back to the second one. Can any one help ? It is based on this code:
