Hi Mark !

OK, I have burned up enough time up on this.   It is not clear to me 
whether I am dealing with a plugin or a helper.  I did read up on 
Configure:: though, and that knowledge will be useful.  I got as far as 
tracing entry to your FormHelper, followed by entry to the cakePHP 
FormHelper, but the functions within your FormHelper never get called.  
Examination of your code suggests that the cakePHP helper should be calling 
functions within your helper ???  The FormConfig.novalidate value is 
visible globally though.  I have been unsuccessful in finding examples of 
similar installations and I have not seen any examples that extend native 
cakePHP code as yours seems to do in the documentation.

But the learning experience has been useful.

Regards

Lorne
