Re: Creating a form dynamically
I've had good results creating my child components as panels and adding them to a RepeatingView (instead of ListView). The child panels should get their IDs from RepeatingView.newChildId(). jk On Fri, Jun 19, 2009 at 10:14:12AM -0400, James Carman wrote: > You could use Velocity to dynamically build your markup. > > On Fri, Jun 19, 2009 at 10:10 AM, Ryan LaHue wrote: > > I'm trying to build a form dynamically and am having a little problem. > > Basically I have a class that takes a List and then passes > > them into a ListView for display on screen.

Re: Creating a form dynamically
You could use Velocity to dynamically build your markup.

Creating a form dynamically
I'm trying to build a form dynamically and am having a little problem. Basically I have a class that takes a List and then passes them into a ListView for display on screen.
