Yes thats correct.I'm stuck at trying to pass the data the cross reference form creates along with data the other form elements pass. >If that's the case, what about simplifying this operation and >put your "Cross Reference" section above the first submit >button.

Thats how I initial tried to di it. Cant remember what error was thrown though. I will try that again. So to be sure, remove the cross reference submit button and use the first form submit button to pass all data to the builderAction.cfm. Again, not sure that will work. > >Allow users to use the "add vendor" and "add product" links >to insert more fields into your main form.

Not exactly sure Im following you here. Ideally I would think the cross reference form could be simplified and maybe not even use the ajax function??? is that a posibility. The true affect I wanted from it anyway was to be able to "add" lists as needed.

Does that have any bearing on which approach to take here? I hope you can read my reply as I tried to address each question and comment you had after each one. >Well its the same as this.
