enabling/disabling a textbox from a select box
I have a select box with several options. I also have a textbox which is disabled. I want the textbox to become enabled with the option labeled "Other" is selected. But I'm not sure how to do this since I have never tried enabling or disabling a textbox with anything other then a checkbox before. Any help will be appreciated.

It's a lot easier than you think.
Using the onChange event handler of the SELECT item, call a function which checks the currently selected value (hint: dropdown[dropdown.selectedIndex].value) to see if it equals "Other". If so, enable the textarea (simple to do - google for "javascript disabled form")

I've pretty much told you the key points - I'm not going to do it for you. Google can tell you the rest - there are plently of great Javascript reference sites around.
