I just responded to a separate but similar suggestion. The form elements, including the buttons, are all generated in a separate function. I am currently passing about 5 variables into this function and I am a little hesitant to pass any others. I am not sure about complexity, performance, etc. in passing so many variables into a function. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas on this. I doubt that this is happening, but I would really like for the code to be as easily maintainable as possible.
