Changing a page instantly

I hope this is the right place for this question, but I was wondering how I could make a page do this:

I have a check box on my page (name = multiple) and what I want to do is when a person clicks it have it add extra input fields or remove them if unchecked. I have no idea how to go about this, I'm thinkin' it would be Java Script, but I'm not exactly sure.

If I confused you, sorry. If not, please try and help!

thanks,
james

this should work:

<form name="myform">
<br><input type="checkbox" onclick="document.getElementById('myhiddenfields').style.display = (this.checked) ? '' : 'none'"> check me!
<br><input type="text" name="myfield1">
<br><input type="text" name="myfield2">

<span id="myhiddenfields" style="display:none">
	<br><input type="text" name="myfield3">
	<br><input type="text" name="myfield4">
</span>

</form>
