formWorks 0.6a - New Features!

Thanks in large part to troubleshooting help from Peter Hahn, I was able to clean up the original formWorks code and patch a good-sized bug.

Thanks Peter!

I've also been able to add a couple new features! With formWorks code, you can now:
  1. You can make two columns on the form pages to make better use of the empty/white space.
  2. Create custom administrator interfaces.
So what the heck does making two columns do for you? Have a look:By feeding a row number and two arrays of row names (e.g.: ['procedural1', 'procedural2']) to the twoCols() function, you can make better use of your screen/paper real estate. The details are in the code.

Also, I've added the isAdmin() function that will let you add custom code for specific uses. I've found this to be particularly helpful when I want to test new features on a live form. I can add the test code into a block that is only executed for me thereby preventing other users of the system from watching the development.


Please contact me if you encounter bugs or have additional features you'd like to see in future releases of formWorks!
