I meant subclassing the TextField for use in the new component, but I have created the component with two conditional spans as described by you earlier. Think this is the fastest and most simple solution.

Your view page would use this new component that you created. The extra typing only happens once when you create the component. After that, you are only _using_ the new component, and additional typing is limited to specifying the editable prameter. If your new component was called MaybeEdit, your view components would be declared as follows: <component id="city" type="MaybeEdit"> <binding name="value" value="passedInCity" /> <binding name="editable" value="userCanEdit" /> </component> <component id="state" type="MaybeEdit"> <binding name="value" value="passedInState" /> <binding name="editable" value="userCanEdit" /> </component> <component id="zip" type="MaybeEdit"> <binding name="value" value="passedInZip" /> <binding name="editable" value="userCanEdit" /> </component> Thus the only difference is passing in the editable param.
