Hi, does it make sense to hide values for which the input-module gives null as result ? maybe the descriptor file can contain a nullable attribute for the these column's (of course only for values not for keys):
<table name="emailaddress" alias="emailaddress" label="Email"> <keys> ... </keys> <values> <value name="kindofuse" type="string"></value> <value name="locator" type="string"></value> <value name="notes" type="string" nullable="true"></value> <! -- optional field --> </values> </table> why this ? the current behaviour forces you to feed each value, for each row being updated, into the request as a hidden parameter. If i leave the fields blank or more likely they don't exist- the update statement overrides existing values with null.
