Great responses Anthony and DenesL. I agree with shartha that you 2
should be commended for supporting this group as well as you do.
shartha, I have used factory a lot in my work and had settled on using
custom forms mostly everywhere in my views. This was a style thing
that I gravitated towards and not anything more formal. I tended not
to specify forms in my controllers, but that's not because I condemned
the practice. It's more likely that I wasn't educated as to why I
should prefer to specify forms in my controller.
Since my forms are customized, like
SPAN(form.custom.begin,form_stuff,form.custom.end), and defined in my
views, I also tended to specify my triggers in the same place. So I'd
have SELECT(...,_onchange="""ajax('...');return false;""" in my view
rather than my controller.
My switch to a components approach has me rethinking things, however.
Since componentized forms are much simpler, I believe I no longer need
to customize as much. Bottom line, I am very much interested in
hearing how others do this.
Question to readers, do you specify your forms and triggers in
controllers or views and why?
