RE: [Arsperl-users] question regarding the query() method

Carey,


-----Original Message-----
But in my local version of the ARSPerl docs I see some statements like:

The online docs say this about the openForm() method
"
The vui parameter currently does nothing, but it will eventually alter
the field labels that you can pass into form->get() form->set(), etc.
The form parameter is the name of the form you wish to open (e.g.
"User"). Upon successful completion this call returns a new ARS::form
object.
"

So this feature may depend on the version of the OO layer your using.
(or maybe the docs are just stale.)


The way I read this is that the VUI acts as a "mask" to filter which fields
are visible.  The usual rules about field ids and labels still apply.

Still makes me cuss sometimes when *almost* all the external/internal labels
are the same and just one or two are "subtly" different (different caps,
spacing etc)!!!

Cheers,

Richard.
