Hi Ed,
You've a pretty specific need here.
If you want to use a Widget I suggest you to encapsulate all things
(fields and layout that in this case is fields dependent) inside a
widget ready to use.
Example:
class MyFields(WidgetsList):
name = TextField()
creditcard = TextField()
class MyForm(TableForm):
fields = MyFields()
template = """
<form xmlns:py="http://purl.org/kid/ns#";
name="${name}"
action="${action}"
method="${method}"
class="tableform"
py:attrs="form_attrs"
>
<table py:attrs="table_attrs">
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><h1>Personal Details</h1></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="name">Name</label></td>
<td>
<div py:content="display_field_for('name')" />
<div py:content="error_for('name')" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><h1>Bank Details</h1></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="creditcard">Credit Card</label></td>
<td>
<div py:content="display_field_for('creditcard')" />
<div py:content="error_for('creditcard')" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td py:content="submit.display(submit_text)" />
</tr>
</table>
</form>
"""
to keep in mind, this is only a basic example, since you're defining
fields content you just instantiate the Form and use it, you don't need
to pass the fields parameter in this case.
Also since you know in advance fields name you're going to use you
define labels by yourself and don't need to loop every field by just
use display_field_for(<field_name_here>) also display field for inside
a widget template already takes care of passing additional arguments
like value and params to the field.
Hope this helps.
Ciao
Michele
