revision 1.39
date: 2001/08/20 23:41:08; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +60 -42
this works pretty well, but has a few problems. for one thing,
I'm not sure what to do about the _sessionid or _submitted
fields. Part of me says to leave them out and let the user
insert them if they want. _sessionid is automatically
handled anyways by keepextras, but not really - you want
it there even if you have keepextras off. So, we reallyt
want to track this stuff automatically. This means I just
have to decide what the submitted() function is going to
return... maybe the number of times only in an array ctxt?
----------------------------
revision 1.38
date: 2001/08/20 23:16:32; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +29 -12
next version will have totally different arg handling in
the render() function - as it should have!!!

never code on Fridays

sticky still broke if say field(value => $val) explicitly!
----------------------------
revision 1.31

----------------------------
revision 1.23
date: 2001/08/15 04:23:40; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +22 -19
I *really* think now that output() should be render(), since
it doesn't imply the printing that "output" does...
----------------------------
revision 1.22
date: 2001/08/15 04:07:59; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +48 -29

revision 1.14
date: 2001/08/08 21:37:20; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +87 -68
all the form building and stickiness is done. now it's onto
validation, testing for submittedness, and handling multiple
submit tags. hmmm.
----------------------------
revision 1.13
date: 2001/08/08 21:11:49; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +21 -42

----------------------------
revision 1.12
date: 2001/08/08 20:59:07; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +115 -52
this version was gearing up to use %HTMLATTR, but it's just way
better to take out our custom tags so that we don't have to update
the module for every new version of HTML
----------------------------
revision 1.11
date: 2001/08/08 00:03:48; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +121 -26
This thing is getting monolithic, but now generates JavaScript too!
----------------------------
revision 1.10
date: 2001/08/07 20:24:54; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +31 -3
validate => javascript support sort of, not really
----------------------------
revision 1.9
date: 2001/08/07 18:31:21; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +24 -20
have to split up %attr and non-whatever, since it's polluting our tags...
----------------------------
revision 1.8
date: 2001/08/07 18:12:05; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +16 -6
now successfully handle multiple selected fields. woo-hoo!

----------------------------
revision 1.6
date: 2001/08/07 00:10:27; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +20 -8
working well, the only thing that this doesn't handle yet is the
ability to have multiple options AND multiple values (like
with multiple select lists and checkboxes). Hmm.
----------------------------
revision 1.5
date: 2001/08/06 23:52:32; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +199 -54
this is getting pretty damn cool
----------------------------
revision 1.4
date: 2001/08/03 21:16:58; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +68 -12
Form building is getting pretty damn cool, just need to abstract
it a little more to make it even easier...
----------------------------
revision 1.3
date: 2001/08/03 19:13:28; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +29 -11
The very simplest cases are handled. Still no processing, and no
customization of field attrs (like checkbox, size, etc).
----------------------------
revision 1.2
date: 2001/08/03 18:48:07; author: nwiger; state: Exp; lines: +51 -13
the form generation is simple and fairly flexible. now we
have to figure out where the form processing fits in...
