How can PHP be used to dynamically activate or deactivate input fields based on user selection in a form?

To dynamically activate or deactivate input fields based on user selection in a form, you can use JavaScript along with PHP. You can use JavaScript to listen for changes in the user's selection and then send an AJAX request to a PHP script that will determine which input fields to activate or deactivate based on the user's selection. 

<?php
// Assuming you have a form with a select input and other input fields
// Here is a simple PHP script that can handle the AJAX request and dynamically activate or deactivate input fields

if(isset($_POST['user_selection'])) {
    $user_selection = $_POST['user_selection'];

    // Determine which input fields to activate or deactivate based on $user_selection
    if($user_selection == 'option1') {
        $input1_disabled = '';
        $input2_disabled = 'disabled';
    } else {
        $input1_disabled = 'disabled';
        $input2_disabled = '';
    }

    // Return the response as JSON
    header('Content-Type: application/json');
    echo json_encode(array('input1_disabled' => $input1_disabled, 'input2_disabled' => $input2_disabled));
}
?>
