Hi again, Just to answer my own question. I think I come up with a clever idea on showing various fields depending on dc:type. I put all the fields into a single step workflow (since I only have about 15 unique properties) and I will show/hide fields depending on what user selects on the first field of the form which is dc:type.
First the user selects 'Book', so I show from Javascript 'title', 'ISBN'. If changes to Contact - I hide those and show name and email etc. -- Cristian On 12/19/2011 05:23 PM, Cristian Romanescu wrote: > Greetings, > > I'm a newcomer here, using DSpace since last week, hopefully posting to > the correct mailing list. > > I'm customizing DSpace instance where we have Communities -> Collections > -> Items (that differ from each other by dc:type).
