I have a form with a button and a workflow on the button element.

I want to display an input once the button is clicked: Which formula can I use for it?

Thanks!

There’s no need for a formula.

- create a variable of type boolean, default to `false`
- bind the conditional display to this variable
- in the button click workflow add an action to change the variable to `true`

You can find more details about conditional display [here](https://docs.weweb.io/css-and-styling/conditional-display.html)
