I have a dropdown field with three choices. Based on the selection, I need a specific text form field to appear, and the others to remain hidden. (Or if it makes the code more clean, the resulting field could be a dropdown, too, with the appropriate choice selected.) I don't know Java well enough to extrapolate code from online examples and repurpose it for my forms. I can provide a sample form. Thanks in advance for your help.

Take notes that everything after "//" is just hints for you to understand the code. You will need to put this script in every field that you want to replicate the behavior, changing the value according to what you want to accomplish. the word "event" means myself for you to understand.
