The discussion is very interesting and helpful.   One thing which is similar
to what I would like is the drop down list that (IE, possibly other
browsers) shows when filling in forms and enables either use of one on the
list or of a new entry.   I gather now that is a different kettle of fish in
coding terms!

I wondered if php used with one option in select might allow this.   While
at the moment javascript could be an answer for the database I'm working on
(records to keep on my pc) I would plan to use this for the site revamp I've
been planning for a year or so, and I'd like to avoid the 'javascript
switched off' complication!!

The other device I would like to use is selecting from another table through
select on a form.   Stephen's link gives me some help for this, but I wonder
if there is a tutorial showing how to fit this into an option (if it is
possible).

If that's what he was talking about, I had a very different image in
my mind... It seemed as if he was talking about being able to leave an
option in the select list blank and then type directly into the
select, if desired.  Which is not what you've got.

However, I really like the whole DB interface on that app.  Is it a
prefab solution?  I'm looking for a script that allows
edit/update/delete functionality based on table definitions...
Anything to do with WonderDesk?  I've worked with their software
before and it didn't look or work anything like that...  I just kept
seeing links to the wonderdesk cgi.

Lastly, if you want some help getting that javaScript to play nice and
make the field read only, give a shout :^)
