</div>np! appreciated :-)<br>
<br>
as 'flexible' as Drupal is, I find the same lack of 'real world'<br>
examples for anything but the simplest matters ...<br>
<br>
"Pro Drupal Development" sums it up nicely:<br>
<br>
"If you come from a background where you have created your own<br>
forms directly in HTML, you may find Drupal’s approach a bit baffling<br>
at first."<br>
<br>
Imo -- amen!<br>
<br>
In DIY HTML/PHP, 'this' is all trivial.<br>
<br>
In Drupal,<br>
<br>
Creating a new form with Webform is trivial.<br>
Creating a new form programatically via module takes a bit of reading-up..<br>
Altering a core-form is pretty straightforward.<br>
<br>
Building a non-standard workflow around core forms, using Drupal<br>
internals and 3rd party module extension is ... a bit challenging.<br>
<br>
Trying to contact the developers whose modules I'm trying to<br>
understand/extend has been less than fruitful, receiving a sometimes<br>
cool reception ... though I _have_ received offers to take my money<br>
for paid consulting ;-)<br>
<br>
This list, and Pro Drupal have been the best help so far.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
