It's more understanding how OO works and the design patterns behind it. I know it can be daunting. We will have more and better examples eventually. Right now we're trying to get everything working and done code-wise for a stable release. > > I have to cut my losses and go back to quickforms which I know better for > lack of time. Please don't. It sounds like you're having very small problems. The solutions I have given you will work. And here they are again. Sorry for being snippy, but it seems I keep saying the same thing over and over. Check my FAQ entry for how to redirect. http://opensource.21st.de/tiki-view_faq.php?faqId=1#q4 For the value of the field, you must set it in the DO or set the value using setDefaults in postGenerateForm. function preGenerateForm() { $this->preDefElements...etc. $this->proj_ID = $_REQUEST['pid'];//or whatever the names are } OR function postGenerateForm(&$form) { $form->setDefaults(array('proj_ID' => $_REQUEST['pid']));//or whatever the names are } > > > > > > Justin Patrin <papercrane@gmail.com> wrote: > Or use an if().
