I've got a somewhat complicated form I'm working on and I'm running into problems. I can't find detailed documentation on WOForm so here's my question (please point me to any useful documentation other than the WOBuiler Dynamic Components Reference):

I have three entities Routing, RoutingStep and Component they are related as follows:
-> to-one
=> to-many
Routing => RoutingStep => Component
Component -> RoutingStep -> Routing
Ideally, I'd like to be able to edit them all-together in one form, but I'm not sure if it is possible or not.


It might be a large page...

This goes way beyond having multiple submit buttons.

Here's an example of the stucture:

<form>

Routing
-RoutingStep 1 of Routing
--Component 1 of RoutingStep 1
--Component 2 of RoutingStep 1
--Component 3 of RoutingStep 1
-RoutingStep 2 of Routing
--Component 1 of RoutingStep 2
--Component 2 of RoutingStep 2
--Component 3 of RoutingStep 2
-RoutingStep Etc, etc, etc.

</form>

Each entity, of course, has it's own attributes and other to-one relationships.

Without being able to nest WOForms inside HTML tables

You can nest them inside of HTML tables, what you can't do is to nest them inside of each other.

, it makes layout difficult, and I can't find documentation on if more than one form is allowed on one page, etc.


You can have more than one on a page, but like this:

<webObject name="Form1">
	///
</webObject name="Form1">

<webObject name="Form2">
	///
</webObject name="Form2">

What you can't do is this:

<webObject name="Form1">
	///
	<webObject name="Form2">
	///
	</webObject name="Form2">
	///
</webObject name="Form1">


Or this

<webObject name="Form1">
	///
	<webObject name="Form2">
	///
</webObject name="Form1">
///
</webObject name="Form2">

Not sure what your problem is beyond that.  Care to explain  further?
