Re: Accessing schema in view

@the_woodsman, yes, the form helper does have knowledge of the schema of the
database. If you have SQL debugging on, you will notice that pages with
form-helpers on them will perform a DESCRIBE table_name, so that it is
able to match the $form-input() with the correct type of input for the
appropriate database field. Not sure how this will help you in getting the
database schema available in the views though.
