Mark, Seems like you want to use same one form to achive multiple functionalities.probably DispatchAction would be helpful. I am working on a similar app to delete and display users with the same one form. Still trying to see if all this can get done just with javascript instead of re-modelling my action class as to extend Dispatch action.....
