[ http://jira.andromda.org/browse/BPM-186?page=comments#action_11576 ] Leif Johansson commented on BPM-186: ------------------------------------
I was thinking about actually hiding fields in tables not just limiting the length of the fields. In most cases it it very easy to overflow the width of the browser with a table of entities. Hiden fields in tables can be replaced with <input type=\hidden\ /> which takes care of validation problems. Imo this is a design-flaw and would be best solved by an extra round-trip to the server to get the attributes to display, but that is a separate discussion. > Various CRUD form suggestions > ----------------------------- > > Key: BPM-186 > URL: http://jira.andromda.org/browse/BPM-186 > Project: Bpm4Struts Cartridge > Type: New Feature > Components: CRUD > Versions: 3.0 Final > Reporter: Leif Johansson > Assignee: Wouter Zoons > > These are suggestions for new features in CRUD forms.
