show hide when a certian option is selected

[8ginga8]

I have this dropdown

<select name="dropdown">
                            <option value="No selection">Make a Selection</option>
                            <option value="test1">test1</option>
                            <option value="test2">test2</option>
                            
                            <option value="Other" >Other</option>
                          </select>

what i would like to acheive is when some one select other they are given a text area to type in. But I would like to have it hidden until they select other from the drop down

given this text box:

<input type="text" name="t1" style="display:none;" />

you can use this code in your select:

<select name="dropdown" onchange="this.form.t1.style.display = (this.selectedIndex == 3) ? 'block' : 'none';">
