I have made it work via a kind of ‘javascript injection’.

i.e. I add the following to the ‘List of HTML element IDs to hide on this page’ I add the following:

ctl00_m_g_99e9305b_c9cd_4704_8a99_02850749f2d0_ctl00_ctl02_ctl00_ContentTypeChoice’).parentNode.parentNode.style.display=”none”; document.getElementById(‘ctl00_m_g_99e9305b_c9cd_4704_8a99_02850749f2d0_ctl00_ctl02_ctl00_ContentTypeChoice

You can see I close the first javascript statement and then start the second…

I would still encourage you to add this to codeplex – this would allow me to do this properly.

Cheers! (and thanks again),

I have successfully used your WSP CleverWorkAroundsHideFields.wsp to hide fields in my Edit form. Thanks

There is (however) one issue that I am having.

I am trying to hide the ‘Content Type’ field in the Edit Form and it (clearly) doesn’t work because the ‘Content Type’ doesn’t have a comment field like below:

I’m sure that with the project source I could make the modifications I need to get this working (via the control.parentNode.parentNode.style.display=”none” as you have presented).

To get to the point – I’m keen for you to release this to codeplex so I can do that

Feel free to contact me to discuss.

Cheers!

Outstanding post but i do have one quick question if you would be so kind as to have a look?

I have a scenario where i would like certain fields to appear when a user makes a change to a drop down list box called Call Type.

When the user selects a choice from the list the hidefields script would run revealling the extra fields to be filled in.

I have tried to do this using an OnChange event and a Switch statement around the following piece of your code but am not getting anywhere?

_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push(“hideFields”);

function findacontrol(FieldName) {
var arr = document.getElementsByTagName(“!”);//get all comments
for (var i=0;i 0) {
return arr[i];
}
}
}

function hideFields() {
// uncomment the next line if you are troubleshooting
// debugger;
var control;
// Add the two lines below for each control to be hidden
//control = findacontrol(“”);
//control.parentNode.parentNode.style.display=”none”;
}

Any help would be appreciated

Kind regards
