How can I show or hide custom made fields which are dependent on another field's choice.
Regards

You would need to use jQuery to do that.
Try asking your question on the new CiviCRM help site.

What Coleman said, but with a bit more background:

Conditional custom fields are not available with out of the box CiviCRM, but if you are comfortable with some simle programing, you could use jQuery to acheive what you want.

Drupal civicrm 4.3.7

In this example the custom field is 55.  If the value of custom_55 is "189" it shows the field custom_8.  If not custom_8 is hidden.
If this was on the contact form you would add the code to templates/crm/contact/form/edit/CustomData.tpl and templates/crm/contact/form/inline/CustomData.tpl

 
Code: [Select]
<script type="text/javascript">
    {literal}

cj("[name^=custom_55_]").on('change', function() {
 
  if(this.value == 189)
  {
 cj("[class^='custom_field-help-pre-row custom_8_']").css("display", "table-row");
  cj("[class^='custom_field-row custom_8_']").css("display", "table-row");
 
}
else
{
  cj("[class^='custom_field-help-pre-row custom_8_']").css("display", "none");
   cj("[class^='custom_field-row custom_8_']").css("display", "none");

}
});
var custom;

custom = cj("[name^=custom_55_]").val();
if(custom != 189)
{
cj("[class^='custom_field-help-pre-row custom_8_']").css("display", "none");
  cj("[class^='custom_field-row custom_8_']").css("display", "none");

}
{/literal}
  </script>
