Hello,

I would know if there is a way to tell to list:reference to not order the 
id of the reference table to keep the order in wich the user has pick those 
element... At the same time I just thought that this concept is useless 
except in case you use some javascript plugin like Chosen Multiple Select 
(http://harvesthq.github.com/chosen/) because, you pick the element in a 
list and there is no way to know which element in the list the user has 
selected first.

My need is to allow users to select element from an other table and keep a 
more informative those selected thing. Like the ingredient on the back 
panel of food box, the first ingredient more abondant than the second an so 
on.

So, for now I think I am stock with a text field. I would avoid a free text 
field because I would prefer user to always use the same name for the same 
thing, but I can't do it with text type field. What I thought is a 
list:reference field and a button beside the field to allow allow user to 
add missing element name in the foreign table if need without leave the 
original form. This can be done easily with the select or add web2py slice 
: http://www.web2pyslices.com/slice/show/1446/widget-select-or-add-option. 
Thanks to the author.

But, I think that keeping the order of the selected element can't be done??

Thanks for help.

Richard
