Where is a good time to use radio buttons instead of select lists, or checkboxes instead of select-multiple lists? What about text fields in the db? Should they be textareas or text inputs? Do all the db fields need to be translated as visible fields? Should you hide ID fields? There are so many questions, that you might be better off rolling your own, as a one-size-fits-all will not always work for everyone. Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
