OK, I solved #1. Indeed, the solution is trivial, but I had to trouble this group in order to get to it - as always :(.
Here's the solution, in case anyone may find it helpful. It's a JS defined using the model's js attribute. I'm not much of a JS coder, so please don't hold the quality of this code against me :). addEvent(window, 'load', hide_other); // Register a callback to when the page has been loaded. var other_index = 0; // Index of the option that triggers the other field display var type_field; // The field that triggers the display var other_field; // The field that is displayed function change_handler() { if (type_field.selectedIndex == other_index) { other_field.parentNode.style.display = '' } else { other_field.parentNode.style.display = 'none' } } function hide_other() { other_field = document.getElementById('id_other_workout_type'); div = other_field.parentNode; div.style.display = 'none' type_field = document.getElementById('id_workout_type'); for (i = 0; i < type_field.length; i++) { if (type_field.options[i].text == 'Other') { other_index = i; } } if (type_field.addEventListener) { type_field.addEventListener("change", change_handler, false); } else if (type_field.attachEvent) { type_field.attachEvent("onchange", change_handler); } else { type_field.onchange = change_handler; } } On Apr 25, 11:57 pm, dimrub <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Greetings, all! > > Two (possibly - trivial) questions regarding a field that has > 'choices' defined for it. > > 1.
