   Is it possible / fairly simple to create a custom field type based on another field type? I'd like to create a drop down list field that is pre-populated with a particular set of choices. The set of choices will almost never change so it is fine if they are set in code.

   Thanks

   I'm afraid this one won't be quite easy to do. It would require pretty much Javascript code. Sorry :(

   That's fine. I figured an acceptable substitute for a custom drop down would be a text area where I could just copy-paste choices quickly. I'm working on adding this on top of the existing interface. The problem I'm having is that pulling jquery into the page (by editing include/header.php) seems to cause problems. Is there a clean way to get jquery in to the edit_form.php page?

   Thanks

   Actually, jQuery already included there. It is defined as:

   var JJ = jQuery.noConflict();

   so you can use it by calling JJ();
