[html-formfu] Best approach for multiple item editing

[Moritz Onken]

Hi Nigel,

you might want to have a look at
http://search.cpan.org/~cfranks/HTML-FormFu-Model-DBIC-0.03003/lib/HTML/FormFu/Model/DBIC.pm#has_many_and_many_to_many_relationships
which should give you a godd start. Repeatable elements are elements  
which get repeated as many times as there is data. You can add a  
checkbox, which deletes the row if this box is checked.

 From the tests I found this small example:

---
auto_fieldset: 1

elements:
   - type: Hidden
     name: id

   - type: Text
     name: name

   - type: Repeatable
     nested_name: addresses
     counter_name: count

     elements:
       - type: Hidden
         name: id

       - type: Text
         name: address

       - type: Checkbox
         name: delete
         value: 1
         model_config:
           delete_if_true: 1

   - type: Hidden
     name: count

   - type: Submit
     name: submit


cheers,
