Hi List Thanks for all the inspiring input on that topic. Funny, it seems like everybody has written a form-factory sooner or later :) I started to do the same thing now (almost done) and i'm quite happy with the results. I can now even dynamically build forms with conditional sub-forms (eg. one selects something from a dropdown, then a specific sub-form for details opens below the dropdown). Thanks to qooxdoo this is feasible!
Now i'm on to validation and stuff and got some more questions: I have mandatory and optional fields. I'd like to have a different look for the mandatory fields, say the Label should be bold or have another color. I'd rather not set the font properties directly in my code, since that would mix logic and presentation. Therefore i had a look at the theming and appearance documentation but i didn't understand a lot there :) Maybe somebody could be so kind and point me into the right direction. I'd like to have some special appearance for a label, let's name it "requiredlabel". There i would define color and font. That's what i tried (just for testing): qx.Theme.define("myapp.theme.Appearance", { extend : qx.theme.modern.Appearance, appearances : { "requiredlabel" : { "textColor" : "#ff0000" } } }); Then in the code: mylabel.setAppearance("requiredlabel"); This doesn't seem to work though... i guess i got it completely wrong. Any help is appreciated. Thanks - Roman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
