to-path and append?

== [input type name value]

== input/type/name/value ; yep, so far so good

== []

== [input type name value] ; say what? I expected (hoped for) ; [input/type/name/value] what have I done wrong? Thanks! tj -- Tim Johnson <[tim--johnsons-web--com]> http://www.alaska-internet-solutions.com http://www.johnsons-web.com

USAGE: INSERT series value /part range /only /dup count DESCRIPTION: Inserts a value into a series and returns the series after the insert. ;...

== block!

== true 'Append and 'insert simply return the series they were given as the first value. That series value is the block! value referred to by 'test-more. What you want is an empty path! value for the 'series argument to 'append. Something like this:

== [input type name value]

== input/type/name/value And if you want the result in a block:

== [input/type/name/value] I hope that helps! Andrew J Martin ICQ: 26227169 http://www.rebol.it/Valley/ http://valley.orcon.net.nz/ http://Valley.150m.com/

TJ> == [input type name value] ; say what? I expected (hoped for) TJ> ; [input/type/name/value] what have I done wrong? You have to use APPEND/ONLY (a path! is like a block, so without /ONLY you insert its elements, not the path! itself).

Aha! I've learned something new. Thank you!

I'm always enlightened by you guys. Andrew, stayed tuned. I'm in the process of writing a subroutine that takes both standard and user defined keywords and types to build dynamic forms. I'll be using 'ML underneath. I hope you all can help me to make it fairly portable - IOWS my schema, which I developed in python using dictionaries and the HtmlGen uses both user-defined types (like "date" which translates to 3 select lists) and user-define keywords like 'req 'lj 'rj' 'llabel, 'rlabel plus keyword/type validation. It works pretty well in python and I hope to make it slicker in rebol. More tomorrow. tim
