The other issue I'm grappling with is how to connect a form to a page or article when the form doesn't have a db table. I would like to have a HABTM and 'with' to set a few vars, something like: FormsPages - id - form_id - page_id - position (sidebar, end of main content etc) But how would i set the validation/schema of 'form' if it has no content? What about adding 2 fields to Forms: Forms - id - name - schema (serialised obj) - validation_rules (serialised obj) And then passing the values of each to the Form model in beforeValidate? Thanks for any insight.
