Some autocomplete widgets allow you to clear the hidden field when the
text field has not been selected from the dropdown. I think YUI
allows that which kind of alleviates this problem because if they
delete part of the input text then it clears the hidden field.

Hi experts and gurus,
I have a class registration form with a location field. I designed
the location field like the select/input box found in Google Reader at
the top. The user is both able to enter some value at the same time
is also able to select from a list of values. I used CSS to positio
Thanks Ian. Your advice is noted.

Turns out I wasn't exactly testing what I thought. You'll notice
that I haven't changed any of the form fields before I submit in my
example. That might be a valid test for correctness of the form
handling, but I actually wanted to set some specific values. When I
set those fields and did a f

probably a bad idea. So I would
Hi,
I'm relatively new to FormEncode and its methodologies. I was
wondering if we need to validate an optional field, for example, a
description textbox in my registration form. The desired result would
be that the user can choose whether or not to fill out the description
text box.
My Question
aha, thanks!

i spent the past 3 hours going through my own validate code, and the
original pylons that i forked off of, trying to figure out why params
is always empty on a form error.
i finally tracked down the issue.
@validate has this line, so that the form can be re-run as a GET with
htmlfill args:

Hello,
I want to serve a file from Pylons with just the headers:
content-type, content-length and expires=. What is the best way?
FileApp seems to add more headers than I want. Iv also tried the
following but somehow the response ends up with content-length=0 and
gains pragma and cache-control hea
@validate becomes self._parse() and self._render_invalid(), both of
these defined on BaseController. The on_get bit is near the top of
_parse() - you could easily patch/override that. I have just noticed
that I didn't remove that fragment from what's left of validate() -
