Can anyone recommend a relatively simple way (in D7) of creating an "Other" field for a List (text) field with a Checkbox widget? What I'm looking for would be something like this (for example)... A check box list :
Which are your favorite modules? (check all that apply)
_ Views
_ Token
_ Pathauto
_ Delta
_ Other?
And then, if "Other" is checked, expose a new field that will allow the user to fill in their own answer.
I found a module named Select (or Other) http://drupal.org/project/select_or_other that seemed to be perfect for what I'm trying to do, but despite many efforts, I wasn't able to get Check Boxes to work with it. It would only display as Radio Buttons.
(I can make a normal list defined as check box/radio button work either way by defining Number of values as 1 or unlimited, but this widget wasn't cooperating)
I'm looking for a solution that a non-programmer (moi) can set up with a module or combination of modules, or by some other means for the average, un-washed designer-type.
Any ideas? As always, I so much appreciate any help my NH DUG buds can provide.

Another possibility... in time
I had also found another module called Conditional Fields http://drupal.org/project/conditional_fields that looks about right for the task. Unfortunately, it's not ready for D7 prime-time yet.
I gotta learn how to program. sigh

How about..
Did you set the field to allow multiple values?
That's why I'm so confused...
using the Select (or Other) module, I did set the number of values to unlimited. But the list still displays as Radio Buttons. If I do the same with a normal list defined as check box/radio button, it displays as check boxes, as you'd expect it to.
