This code allows for some complex form displays.
First, it allows for a parent drop down to control the options displayed
in a second dependent drop down. The options in the dependent drop down
will change depending on the selected option in the parent form. Unlike
most of the other JavaScripts out there, this parent/dependent relationship
is defined in the function arguments rather than hard coded. Therefore
the same script can be used in multiple parent/dependent relationships in
a form. The only limit is to how many menu arrays you build.
Second, it allows for fields to be hidden or shown when an event occurs.
Fields can be given a default value for instructions. I've also included
code for the field to be cleared out or selected when it is clicked
Third, it allows for fields to be shown if/when Other is selected from a drop
down menu.
Fourth, it allows for drop down menus to be reset to the first element or
cleared completely when an event occurs.
