Html – How to make text field visible based on a specific dropdown list value?

I have a list of option values. Only when a certain option from the value is selected and I would like to show custon_25 text field. I select a specific option like value 2, 5 or 7 then show the text field to enter.

Can anyone help please? Thanks

$('#select2-results').click('change',function()
{
  if($('value==2').is(':selected'))
  {
    $('#custom_25').show();
  }
  else
  {
    if($('#custom_25').is(':visible'))
    {
      $('#custom_25').hide();
    }
  }
});

    So? But in your html-code no #select2-results and select has style="display: none;". So I show select and use event change. Or select is hidden and one of his children has selected already?

    $('#custom_24').change(e => {
  if (e.target.value === '2' || e.target.value === '5' || e.target.value === '7') {
    $('#custom_25').show();
  } else {
    $('#custom_25').hide();
  }
});

    If you are not going to use the value of custom_25 it is better to disable the input element. By disabling it, it will not be send in the GET/POST request on the submit event.

    You can style disabled input elements, so that they are hidden, either by using display:none or visibility:hidden.

    document.forms.form01.custom_24.addEventListener('change', e => {
  let hit = [2,5,7].some(num => e.target.value == num);
  e.target.form.custom_25.disabled = !hit;
});
    input:disabled {
  display: none;
}
    <form name="form01">
  <div id="editrow-custom_24" class="crm-section editrow_custom_24-section form-item" style="display: block;">
    <div class="label" style="display: none;">
