Kid's templates must be XML compliant.  Use "multiple='True'" and you'll get
it.  But you should be trying to use Widgets in your code since they prove to
be a lot valuable and time saving. 

I'm finishing one application that took me one afternoon to model and code,
only using widgets.  It will be one of the modules of a bigger application I
have here and is targeted towards "watching" price evolution for items that a
company buys (from supermarket to components of their products).

What version of TG are you using?

Backtraces have been significantly improved after some changes on TurboKid, in
