Hi Thomas,
it looks like the bug is here:
ad_form -extend -name add_edit -form \
[list \
[list \
categories:text(checkbox),multiple \
{label "Select: [set type_short_name]"} \
{options [list $options]} \
{values $categories} \
] \
]
Perhaps the behavior of ad_form has changed in 5.0 (I'm coding on 4.6.3). It looks like the [set type_short_name] section is not working.
This bug does not show up in 4.6.3, but I've changed it to as follows:
set select_name "Select: $type_short_name"
ad_form -extend -name add_edit -form \
[list \
[list \
categories:text(checkbox),multiple \
{label $select_name} \
{options [list $options]} \
{values $categories} \
] \
]
I'm not sure that will work.
The resource-list package is in /contrib partially because the admin interface isn't very developed at all. My recommendation, actually, is to put the types in yourself (I put in two: Population and Location). Then the UI works alright.
I also added in a .vuh for resource list, so that links are picked up better by Google (hopefully).
I'm checking in the code soon.
