Thanks guys appreciate responses. I recalled a different behavior so I 
assumed I was blocked. As always thanks for the education.

Marty,
Depending on your mail provider and client, often you will not get a copy
of the message you sent. I got one email on this thread from you that
started "If this application is multi-user consider that the [...]" and of
course this one that I am replying to.

If you reply to a large thread, often the HoF mail server will let you know
that you sent a large post and it didn't appreciate it, but it by no means
blocks it.

If this application is multi-user consider that the session scope is not 
shared. Why not trigger an ajax call on blur. You could tack this event 
all your input fields really easily using jQuery.

Good Luck!

Marty

Re: Code Design help

2013-05-06 Thread Russ Michaels

It seems form what you have said that any user can have multiple invoices
with payments due, in which case would it not be better to just have a
single "make payment" at the bottom which they fill in with the amount they
want to pay which is then taken off their total balance.
But allowing users to enter amounts is prone to error, so how about have a
checkbox at the end of each row for the user to specify which invoices they
want to pay, then submit the form and click through to payment
page which totals up  all the checked invoices.
