How to call a function or process when checkbox is checked

I have a Panel Box with multiple checkboxes in it. I want to be able to add additional checkboxes to the panel when one checkbox is selected.  For instance when I check CbBox2, I want the entire HLBox1 to be added to the window. Is this possible in JSL? See code below: 

HLBox1 = H List Box(
  spacer Box(Size(20,20)),
  CbBox3 = Check Box( "Additional Option Only to Appear if CbBox2 is selected." );
  CbBox3 << Set(0)
 );

GUIWindow1 = New Window("Preset Selections",
 PanelBox("Single option1, option 2, or Both",
 CbBox1 = Check Box( "Box 1 Option" ),
 CbBox2 = Check Box( "Box 2 Option" ),
 SpacerBox(Size(5,5)),
 
 CbBox1 << set( 1 ), 
 CbBox2 << set( 0 )
 ),
 
);

You can associate an anonymous function when you call Check Box() to create the display box.

 

GUIWindow1 = New Window("Preset Selections",
 PanelBox("Single option1, option 2, or Both",
 CbBox1 = Check Box( "Box 1 Option",
  << Set Function(
   Function( { cb }, { temp },
    temp = cb << Get;
    // anything you need to do
   )
  )
 ),
 CbBox2 = Check Box( "Box 2 Option" ),
 SpacerBox(Size(5,5)),
 
 CbBox1 << set( 1 ), 
 CbBox2 << set( 0 )
 ) 
);

Use the message

     << set items

 

There is a good example of this in the Scripting Index, under the entry for

     CheckBoxBox

Names Default To Here( 1 );
New Window( "Example",
 cb = Check Box(
  {"One", "Two", "Three"},
  Print( "Selected: " || Concat Items( cb << Get Selected(), ", " ) )
 )
);
Wait( 2 );
cb << Set Items( {"a", "Four", "Five", "Six"} );
