Hi,

I need to make a complex form this week. I need to do the same form as
the contact advanced search inside thunderbird. For those who doesn't
know it here is a screen shot:
http://nsit.uchicago.edu/img/email/tbird-advanced-search.png

The form is built by the user. He can add form fields define 'where' to
search, ...

My question is:
* Could I use z3cform to do this ? I have tried it but I need to define
a schema. But in my case, I don't know the schema ... it seems not the
good way
* CMF FormController. I know how to do it with this technology, but it
seems very old and I want my product to be fashionned and have a good
future.
* By hand ? Coding every things and do not use any other technologies
than browserview.
* Any other idea ?

You definitely can do it with z3c.form. You'll probably want to spend some time learning about the framework. It's very powerful, but what you want to do requires some work.

The 'crud' stuff in plone.z3cform may be interesting for you, as would subforms in general be.
