    Default Conditional Form Fields?

    Is it possible to create form fields that appear or disappear depending on selections made in other fields?

    For example: I would like to have two radio buttons labeled "Fiction" and "Non-Fiction" on my form. If the user selects "Fiction", a combo box of fiction genres will appear. If the user selects "Non-Fiction", a combo box of non-fiction genres appears instead.

    Is this possible, or just wishful thinking?

    Thanks,
    te

    It takes scripting. Javascript on the client side or ASP or PHP on the server side.

    Do a search for "cascading dropdowns".

    Here's a tutorial using JavaScript.
