List with hundreds of columns
Hi Guys, Looking at creating a really long safety form with hundreds (around 250) of columns in a list. For data entry client wants a smart/dynamic form, like based on what we choose, new fields appear of disappear. Is it worth while exploring dynamic behaviour using JQuery on list forms or better create a custom page/webpart. Ruling out Infopath as web based requires enterprise cals.

It's web based system and I think broader based info path requires enterprise On Tuesday, June 11, 2013, Prashanth Thiyagalingam wrote: What about InfoPath with rules for dynamic functionality?

I can *highly* recommend Dynamic Forms for SharePoint. http://spjsblog.com/2012/01/19/dynamic-forms-for-sharepoint/ It allows you to tab group your fields, setup filters and rules for dynamic fields, and even password protect the config page for each list.

Re: List with hundreds of columns
I have done something similar, with a document set that has approx 60-70 columns. I created a custom new form for the document set (as this is the only way to edit the new form for a doc set) and embedded jQuery in it to give the form tabs, do client side validations etc. I then edited the edit and view forms, added content editor web parts with pretty much the same jQuery, so they get the tabs and the edit form gets the validations. It all works well, and although there is some maintenance when the fields change, I much prefer it to have to change a little bit of jQuery and let the ootb list web part handle the CRUD operations then to have to develop a set of custom forms to do it (I know info path is an option, but we use managed metadata, so that pretty much rules that out).
