1. A select_one field exists with a list of possible values (using the autocomplete appearance to narrow options as a user types.
2. The desired value does not exist within the list. oh no!
Is it possible to allow the user to enter their own value in the field without reference to the list?
Currently the workaround is to have an 'other' option within the list and then a seperate text field that only become relevant when the 'other' value is selected from the select_one field. This is fairly clunky and annoying to code around and format popups for etc.

While it isn't possible to have the user add their own choices to a select_one, perhaps this method might be useful:

Thank you Jim for that. It is a better workaround than I initially had and does clean up the back end service considerably.
