How to include textarea with Checkboxes in Forms

Hello all,

What I'm trying to achieve here is, a form with Checkboxes, but i want to include a textarea for user to enter their own text as well. It is for an unsubscribe page. Example:

Is it possible in Marketo? If its not, can i create an external form then upload it to marketo?

Of course. Almost anything is possible with a Marketo form because there's a full-featured JS API.

What you're looking for here is a combination of datatypes, which you can't build in the Form Editor UI but you can on the client side. See this blog post: https://blog.teknkl.com/forms-add-other-option-without-new-field/

    Hey Sanford - thanks for that article. I noticed though that the JS code you mentioned isn't actually linked on the page. Could you take a look at it? We're trying to do the exact same thing and I'd like to save my web team some work.
