re-formating post for clarity (and an omission).


Sure, Dave, here's the one in CVS head:

http://fisheye.openacs.org/browse/OpenACS/openacs-4/packages/spreadsheet/www/example-form.tcl

The qf_* code is a small part of it:

# build form

qf_form action example-form id i99

qf_input type text value $input_array(full_name) name full_name label $title_array(full_name) id i967 size 40 maxlength 50

qf_append html "<br>"

qf_input type text value $input_array(email_address) name email_address label $title_array(email_address) id i968 size 40 maxlength 80

qf_append html "<br>"

qf_input type text value $input_array(subject) name subject label $title_array(subject) id i969 size 40 maxlength 80

qf_append html "<br>"

qf_textarea name message rows 30 cols 40 label $title_array(message) value $input_array(message)

qf_append html "<br>"

 qf_input type submit value $title_array(submit)

   qf_append html "&nbsp;"

   qf_input type reset value $title_array(reset)
   
qf_append html "&nbsp;"

qf_append html "<a href=\"example-form\">Clear form</a>"

qf_append html "&nbsp;"

qf_input type hidden name validated value $validated

qf_close

set form_html \[qf_read \]

form_html is then passed to the adp template.
