title: Backbone JS Models: Hiding a dropdown
body: <p>Please excuse me if this is a silly question. I'm trying to hide a dropdown based on the attributes value in the Backbone models something like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>var MyModel = Backbone.Model.extend({
     initialize: function(options) {
     // I have access to this.attributes here
     if(options.name == 'Test') {
      // hide the subject dropdown
  
     }
  }
  }); 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm trying to hide the dropdown but looking for ideas to figure out what is the right approach to do this? Since the dropdown is in a Backbone form I'm wondering if I can just set the type to 'Hidden' in the models</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
