Display hidden form field based on select box choice



Here is a form element I have.







<select id="state" name="state" style="width: 212px;">

<option value="nsw">New South Wales</option>

<option value="qld">Queensland</option>

<option value="vic">Victoria</option>

<option value="nt">Northern Territory</option>

<option value="tas">Tasmania</option>

<option value="sa">South Australia</option>

<option value="wa">Western Australia</option>

<option value="act">Australian Capital Territory</option>

<option value="notinoz">Not in Australia</option>

</select>







What I want to do is below this add another select box element , if user chooses "not in Australia" in the options above. I am really after the cleanest lightest code possbile.





I am presuming we create a div and set visibility:hidden just not sure how to trigger it.

So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
