Re: Easy way to create form component.

[Muhariz Jabeer]

Hey Lucas, Kent is correct. I'm a complete newbie too but i was lucky enough to stumble upon the correct implementation(after 3 days) of a custom component (which is meant ot be submitting data within a form to the server) by extending BaseComponent and i also implemented the IFormComponent interface. The reason for the latter i cannot remember anymore, i found it in some forum. Here are the three files. This is more complex than a standard component, its meant ot create a dynamic html table by iterating through a collection class. And when it needs to add another row, it simply posts the collection class back to the server and requests the server to add another row into it which in turn ends up making the component draw one more row.

I've attached the class file, the JWC file and html template for u to look at. Mail me if u have more questions.

Hi there.

First I want to say thanks to Kent Tong for helping such a newbe like
me with eariler questions. Thanks!
But again I need someone to correct me if I'm wrong. I'm constanlty
(still without a success) working on this form component which
displays (in TextFields) whole information about eg. Client - adress,
name etc. This component should consist of other components (inner
components) and should be wrapped by a form to submit changes to this
client object.

So far i know that i need to create component that extends
AbstracFormComponent. Here are my questions.

If i need to implement render method how do I render all
contained(inner) components there?

Do I have to set values to inner components before render? My guess is
that they should already be assigned their values?

Do i have to implement any methods to set proper values to my client
object when my component form is submited?

Should I use "form" direction for my client parameter??

Thanks in advance.
