S**t!! this is scaaary...You just read my mind! (no joke) :D Since revision 1855 (SVN) which I comitted about an hour ago I just implemented this . If you dare to: $ svn co http://www.turbogears.org/svn/turbogears/branches/1.0 turbogears $ cd turbogears $ sudo python setup.py develop (on unix) you can now do: field_for('user_password').help_text field_for('user_password').label field_for('user_password').fq_name this one is to get the fully-qualified name that the widget will render (this makes sense when you have nested fieldsets or repeating fieldsets) field_for('user_password').error (equivalent to error_for ('user_password')) or even (if you really enjoy typing): field_for('user_password').display( value_for('user_password'), **params_for('user_password') ) from within your forms and fieldsets templates to get complete control over the layout. Even for the help_text and label. Alberto --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
