Text box disappears

[cturner]

I have a text box that disappears when the submit button is pressed. I need the text box to remain displayed when the submit button is pressed. Thanks in advance.

Here is the code to make the text box appear:
[code]
function showTextField1(el) {
if (el.selectedIndex) {
switch (el.selectedIndex) {
case 11:
document.forms[0].elements['other1'].style.display = "";
break;
}
}
}
[/code]

This code is on a combo box:
[code]
onchange="showTextField1(this);"
[/code]

Here is the code for the text box itself:
[code]
<input type="text" name="other1" size="26" style="display: none;" value="<?php print $other1; ?>" />
[/code]
