hi ...

in your attached code you have:

<input type="text" name="purpose" style="visibility:hidden; width:400px" maxlength="150" value=<%=porpose%>>

add an id-attribute since the toggle-function relies on it ...

kind regards

Hi gits
Thanks for your kind time to time guidance
this code work fine

function toggle_state(obj) {
    // here we check the value of your select-box
   //var val = obj.value == 1; 
 
    if (obj.value == 1)
 {
 val=1;
 }
 else
 {
 val=0;
 }
 
    var input_node = document.getElementById('purpose');
 
    input_node.style.visibility = val ? 'hidden' : 'visible';
 
}
</script>

}
</script>

your adaption is definitly equivalent to the simple one line that you have 'outcommented' ... this couldn't have made a problem ... simply produces more lines of code and worse performance since 0 and 1 has to evaled to false/true in our assignment later on ... so it has to work with the

var val = obj.value == 1; 
 

too?

kind regards
