Create some format to store the info for the form contents... like off the top of my head... TEXT:Name:20:RADIO:Sex:Option1:Option2:CHECKBOX:State:Option1:Option2:...:PASSWORD:Password:20:.... Just an example, but doable to store in a database, then you create parsing functions to handle this string....
You can also search for form automation, or form abstraction, or creation on google/sourceforge/freshmeat/etc... to see what turns up... ----- Original Message ----- From: Shaun <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thursday, October 14, 2004 1:01 pm Subject: [PHP] User Defined Forms > Hi, > > I am creating a site where users record details of their clients > and record > their progress.
