To hide a datepicker field:

$(’tr:has(input[title=PAAdminStartDate])’).not(’tr:has(tr)’).parents(’tr:first’).hide();

@Arkadiy:

Try replace ‘input’ with ’select’

I have tried to use all 3 methods on my NewItem page, but it only works for text field.
How do I select DropDown? I noticed that SharePoint adds some text to Title, for example for my “Status” field SharePoint lists “Status: Specify your own value:” as title. Plugging that in the code didnt really work…Any ideas?

great article. I have iPhone app that pulls contact web parts in and formats them to look good. It only shows last name since that is primary key field, so I might see several ‘Jones’ on my phone. Is there way in jQuery to concatenate Last/First Name at runtime and show in list so I see whole name?

I’ve been using basically this:

$(’nobr:contains(”Hide Me!”)’).closest(tr).hide();

Enjoy,
