Using check boxes to slide an element up or down.

Hello, I’ve watched the ‘Website Change Request Form’ video, and am messing around with making my own contact form. However, I’ve run into a snag that is DRIVING ME NUTS.

Before I start, I’ve been working on this live on the server, and the page is here for reference:

http://www.meetaaronsilber.com/Form/index.php

If you click the radio button that says “Tell you about my new project and see if you available to work on it”, you’ll see a ‘Type of Project’ section down the page. Within this section, If you click the ‘Other” checkbox a ‘please specify’ textbox will slideDown. However, if you uncheck the ‘other’ checkbox, the element will not slideUP…. and thats what is driving me insane.

I’ve even tried it on jsfiddle and it works well there; http://jsfiddle.net/qsamp/19/

If you are familiar with this video, you’ll know that jqtransform is used to style the form. I’ve a feeling that is what I’m not compensating for with my code.

Your help with this would be very much appreciated. I’m at a loss!

I still haven’t figured this out. If anyone is able & willing to focus their mental powers on a solution, I would be very grateful. :-)
