Hello, I have a bizzard case where I need to set the number of input (more number of rows to be insert then inputs to be more precise) of a form... I create a bulk insert form that will insert many record at the same time but, if there is empty rows form will never submit since there is field in the row that can't be empty... So I need to let the user determine the number of input he needs... For more flexibility I would prefer the user to be allow to change the number of inputs (rows) while he is filling the form since he may have made a mistake in evaluation of the number of row he were needing if I only let him set this parameters before the form is generated...
One solution is to create a factory form with one field number_of_inputs that could auto-submit once the number of inputs is select by a dropbox, then the page reload and I can force the regeneration of the seconde embeded form in the page to consider the new number_of_inputs parameters before redraw the form... With this approach I need to keep values that are already entered, but the second form should not be submitted since it is not completed and because of that I need a custom keep values feature that doesn't required the second form to be submit... Other solution, could be to embed the number_of_inputs into a unique form and parse only the first inputs until the max number of rows allowed by the number_of_inputs value... Not very possible without customizing form.accepts() I guess... Richard -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
