Hi,

I've been driving myself crazy the past couple hours and can't figure this out. Here is what I need to do:

Have a select box like this:

[code]<select name="dropdown">
<option value="option1">option1</option>
<option value="option2">option2</option>
</select>[/code]

Then when one of those options is selected, the appropriate div tag is displayed:

[code]<div id="option1">
Div 1 Text
</div>

<div id="option2">
Div 2 Text
</div>[/code]

This seems like it should be really simple to do, but I can't figure it out. Please help someone?

Try this
[code]
<script language="javascript">
    function hide(){
        document.getElementById('option1').style.display = "none";
        document.getElementById('option2').style.display = "none";
    }
    function show(wdiv){
        hide();
        document.getElementById(wdiv).style.display = '';
    }
</script>

<select name="dropdown" onChange="show(this.value);">
<option value="option1">option1</option>
<option value="option2">option2</option>
</select>

<div id="option1" style="display:none;">
Div 1 Text
</div>

<div id="option2" style="display:none;">
Div 2 Text
</div>
[/code]

Make sure you include all the divs to the hide function,
