Yeah, Richard, I was so focused on the element handling I didn't notice you used template::form instead of ad_form in the demo. This is one explanation of why your code was a breeze to understand! I find other's template::form code much easier to read/debug than ad_form.

Which is of course a perfectly good reason to elect to code that way, as Phil G put it 'to make it easy for your maintenance programmer'.

I am searching for my electronic copy of Roberto Mello's ad_form cheatsheet which I think you'll find very helpful too.

I'll sent it as soon as I find it.

Thank you, Richard,

I have Mello's ad_form quicksheet (and most all other ad_form references that are publicly available).

The quicksheet is available here: https://openacs.org/storage/view/ad-form-quick-ref.pdf

cheers,

Torben
