[support] multiple buttons with same #value D5

[Metzler, David]

Yeah I understood that, but what I was pointing out is that you can get
all your id's field data grouped by $id in your forms array if you
reversed the nesting and put them in a container.  You'd still need to
use the name trick to get the buttons detected right ( I Think) . 

Sorry if I wasn't clear.  Here's a fictional example from a shopping
cart metafor. 

The form -- 
   // Build the rows of items. 
   While (....) {
       $row['qty] = array('#type' => 'textfield' ...); 
       $row['size'] = array('#type' => 'radios'); 
       $items[$id] = $row; 
      }
   $form['items'] = $items; 
   $form['items']['#tree'] = TRUE; 
   

The values 
   // Iterate the cart
   foreach ($form_values['items'] as $id=>$item) {
     // inside this loop $item['qty'] is the quantity 
     // and $item['size'] is the size
   } 

I just thought you (and others) might find this useful.

No they were actual editable values.
Each row had a textfield (qty) and a button + a "superbutton" at the end
of the table.

Anyway problem was solved directly controlling the name attribute.
