Dear Dr.Loboto, thank you very much for your suggestion... i'm
handling on it but i would first need to know how to set the
FormHelper options to show one text field beside each checkbox...
I was thinking about something like markup injections using
parameters "between[string]" or "after[string]" but i'm not really
sure it make sense...
Any additional suggestion ?
thanks a lot, really appreciate
fabio
