RE: [PEAR] Template_flexy + QuickForm problem: hidden formfieldgets overwritten with bad value

Alan, Ron and Bertrand, Thanks for the help. Glad to hear about the QF renderer replacing the implicit integration of QF. I was hoping for an easy way to intervene and add interact with QF from within my objects without having to alter the base QuickForm or Flexy classes, and as best I could tell (and I definitely could be wrong) there was no interface for that. Now it sounds like I can take or leave QuickForm in my templates, and easily access its methods it if I do use it. I'll check out the CVS (I had seen a link for the renderer earlier on the list but the link was dead). Thanks!
