I have found many answers to the question:
How do I show/hide DIV on selection of \"Other\" dropdown value.
However I cannot fin
add the following function to the onchange,
function showHide(value) {
if (value=='')
document.getElementById('divShow').style.display = 'none';
else
document.getElementById('divShow').style.display = 'block';
}
and set the display style of the div (which is needed to hide/shown) to none initially. Check demo here
