Can you? I dunno. Have a look at how other people make forms. Download some PHP applications for this or go through the manual. Then see if you can get the basic info you need to make the form in such a way that you can tell on beforehand whether you want to create which form object. Maybe you can make a row for every item with the fields name value objecttype starting_value(s) width on objecttype go to a subroutine making that object, e.g. # object multitext (if row($objecttype==multitext) or so) echo "<input type='text' width=$width value=$value>"; or so. the example is just an indication and may contain huge silly awful genetically engineered bugs have fun, Chris -------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Hayes Droevendaalsestg. 35 6708 PB Wageningen the Netherlands http://www.xs4all.nl/~chayes/
