How to get selected item from the multi-select option entity?

Example: I have N:N relationship and display multi-select options on a sub-grid. The client would like to display 'Other' field - text box, when the 'Other' option is selected from the multi-select entity?

    if you are wanting to dynamically update the columns in a data grid to show an additional field when a given value is selected, you'd need to use a 3rd party grid tool, for example 'Editable Data Grid' from AbleBridge.

    messy work around could be to have 2 sections, one grid in each, one grid having the 'Other' text box column and one not.  When a user selects the 'Other' option, you'd need to use a Java script to display the grid with the additional column.

    Another work around would be to have a new text field that is updated with you selection, then the user selects 'other' you show (make visible) your 'Other' test box and make it 'required' , you then concatenate the text from your selection with the 'Other' text and place that in your new text field.  This is then the field you display in the grid.  

    You'd need to do a bit of hide and show with Java script, but it should give you the desired affect.  

    Does that help?
