Have the text form a checkboxlist not displayed

I am trying to get the users to pick from a checkBoxList to pick popular options (Media, Flyer, School).
I want to store each on a newline like TxtMedia.Text += ChBMedia.Items[i].Text + "<br>";
or comma separated.

The other problem I am having is that the code does not work and unless the user only select other.

Finally, I don't want the the word "other" entered into the textbox when the user selects it.

thanks

What I have tried:

C#

protected void ChBMedia_SelectedIndexChanged1(object sender, EventArgs e)
         {
             TxtMedia.Text = "";
             for (int i = 0; i < ChBMedia.Items.Count; i++)
             {

                 if (ChBMedia.Items[i].Selected)
                 {

                     TxtMedia.Text += ChBMedia.Items[i].Text;

                 }
                 if (ChBMedia.SelectedItem.Value == "Other")
                 {
                     TxtMedia.Enabled = true;
                 }
                 else
                 {
                     TxtMedia.Enabled = false;
                 }
             }

Getting certain results from a CheckedListBox can be a bit 'unusual'.
It's not clear what you want when the 'Other' item is selected, but have a look at this:

C#

private void ChBMedia_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    TxtMedia.Clear();
    foreach (string item in ChBMedia.CheckedItems)
    {
        if (item != "Other")
        {
            TxtMedia.AppendText(item + Environment.NewLine);
        }
    }
}

It may also be a good idea to set: ChBMedia.CheckOnClick = true;
