Ok, I see. I have not thought about that. If I understand right, You want to render only the value of the field, and not use an <input> element at all. Well, one could do this manually via the from rendering code, but of course this is getting less nice .... My concern here is not about that specific feature; the problem I see is that when editing Formulator fields one will have a lot of fields and options there which are used in some, hm, special applications, (someone out there who uses the alternate name feature?) so one gets lost in finding the essential ones ... if one feature is added one can always name the next feature. (how about an accesskey, btw ;-) As such settings as "hidden", "disabled", "readonly", are both possibly useful for all fields _and_ are not used very often, mayeb they should be moved in a separate tab to keep edit tab manageable? Or maybe a separate group in the "edit" tab? Just a thought, Clemens
