 * Hi,
 * Great plugin.
 * I have a checkbox that I want to use to display/hide a form textarea (I think
   you do something similar in one of your demos – but no explanation of how to 
   do it).
 * I made many attempt to get this working but no luck.
 * How do I set up the conditional logic so that, if checkbox is checked, the textarea
   is displayed or, alternatively, if checkbox is unchecked, the textarea is hidden
   again?

 * you need to edit the textarea field then set the conditions on that to show when
   the checkbox field IS the value.
