So in the widget attrs for the dropdown I should define an event and a
javascript function to call whenever the event (like onclick) fires?
So where's a good place to find the javascript code to actually
display the field? So do I make the field I want to display originally
a hidden field and then change the type in the javascript or do I mkae
the field originally a text input field, but somehow set it to be
invisible initially?
