[development] Form fields in a table

[Jeff Greenberg]

Hi Lee,

Well, I think this is a slightly different scenario, so I might need to 
do what you're saying in a different way. It's a multi-page form that 
starts as a a few search fields, and then adds on the results, some of 
which is editable.

So, the flow is like this:

hook_form() {
    turn off #redirect
    build sort form fields
    does form_values have id?
    Y
        update form submit was clicked?
        Y
            update tables
        N
            query based on contents of sort fields
            loop through result set and create additional form fields
            create table containing mixture of text and form fields
            add submit field
}
