Thanks Bryan, I think that will put me on the right track. I assume this should also be defined in the application.dryml? I have the hobo-jquery and am currently using its date-picker in the app but I haven't experimented with formlets or its other features. They seem even less documented than hobo!
I think the new tag definition you propose for the "guts" of the form is a decent workaround though. Do you know if there are any good jquery-hobo examples available? I've also seem some very impressive jquery sortable/editable tables but I don't think they would be that easy to integrate into a hobo app. - Mike On Jun 29, 2:43 pm, Bryan Larsen <[email protected]> wrote: > Sorry, I understand the question now. > > input-many uses a field-list rather than a form, and field-list is not a > polymorphic tag.
