Can't see what is wrong with my code here. I just want to hide a field and make sure the form can still be submitted by setting required to false. When I click submit the button does not work and the browser page just does a micro-jump stutter as if though the field is still required but hidden. I have to go manually make the field not read-only in the editor in order to submit.

$('.show1').hide();
  $('.show1 input').attr('required', 'False');
