Hello everyone,

I am still new to adobe and javascript, but i was asked if it is possible to show or hide sections of a pdf form.  An example would be: if some clicks "yes" for section one.  right below section one title, all of the questions would appear and section two title is then moved down.  This could repeat for each section, in my case it would be 10 of them.  So the overall form could be as little as 2 pages and expand to 9 pages if everything is checked yes.  is this something that is do-able in adobe acrobat, and if so. how would i go about completing this.  thank you for any help.

This is not normally possible with a normal PDF form. It's not dynamic in this way. The only way to achieve something like it is if you use LiveCycle Designer (or AEM Form Designer) to create a dynamic XFA form, or if the entire contents of your file are made out of fields, and then you could move them around as needed, but that is extremely complicated to implement.
