crap! I hijacked the other thread again...<br><br>I guess what I am looking for is a way to use another module to hook into profile.modules rendering of fields. So that I can change a particular field (textarea) using form_alter to change it to a group and add my markup field to that group. This way they can continue to use profile.module and I don't have to hardcode each instance. But I cannot see how to do this from the Form API docs.<br><br><b><i>Carl Mc Dade <carl_mcdade@yahoo.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> Hmm,<br><br>After reading my own post I saw that I left out a critical point. The original fields are being created with profile.module. I have brought up the subject of changing this but for now I wanted to know if Forms API can hook into the dynamic creation of form fields handled by the profile.module<br><br>Sorry about that. The previous post was badly
formulated.<br><br>I also thought of using straight markup to create a custom textarea with the HTML added but profile.module does not have this ability. Is anyone working on this type of functionality?<br><br>- Carl<br><br><b><i>Adrian Rossouw <adrian@bryght.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> take a look at how the filter forms work.<br><br>There's help text in the node_example.module about it too.<br><br>Essentially you need to create a grouping array, move the original element into it , and then put your new field into that. <br>This is all perfectly possible with form_alter<br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 8/10/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Carl Mc Dade</b> <<a href="mailto:carl_mcdade@yahoo.com">carl_mcdade@yahoo.com</a>> wrote: </span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt
