Does anyone know how to hide or show a field based on the content of a field?

For example if a selection field had cat,dog,fish and there were three hidden tabs called cat,dog,fish. if the user has selected cat. next time the form opens the cat tab will show. or dog or nothing dependent on what was selected...
Basically want this so an initial simple form is completed and when save and closed it will go to a multiple tabbed page for more detail based on the selections in the initial form.

Hope someone can help .. my coding is rubbish and I'm getting to old to do a course.

Regards

Jonathan

Depending on the option he checked, the tabs are visible or not. Does the display of the tab depend on a table in the database? Otherwise the user ticks in box and the tab appears directly? Both are relatively simple. But I need to know which situation releases the display of the tab Nicolas

I don't know how your database is built or how you get the data after sending the form.
I don't know how you know about coding, but try something like this:

<ul class="nav nav-tabs">
	<li class="active" id="chienTab" <?php if ($this->item->chien == 0) { echo style="display:none"; } ?>>
		<a href="#chien" data-toggle="tab">
			<?php echo(JText::_('TAB_CHIEN')); ?>
		</a>
	</li>

	<li class="" id="chatTab" <?php if ($this->item->chat == 0) { echo style="display:none"; } ?>>
		<a href="#chat" data-toggle="tab">
			<?php echo(JText::_('TAB_CHAT')); ?>
		</a>
	</li>
	<li class="active" id="poissonTab" <?php if ($this->item->poisson == 0) { echo style="display:none"; } ?>>
		<a href="#poisson" data-toggle="tab">
			<?php echo(JText::_('TAB_POISSON')); ?>
		</a>
	</li>
</ul>

after modifications according to your component, it should work
If you can not do it, send me the component and I'll make the change in it
