An example is that when a user selects a "server" from a select box I add (via AJAX calls back to server) a "type" select box pre-populated with valid choices for that server.

Hello all, I have a form with a datetime_select. I need to use the actual time selected in an action triggered by observe_field. Could make it work with other select fields, but not with datetime_select. Seems that observe_field can locate the element just by the id (not by the name).
