In fact, the entire form is generated dynamically through this tag, something like this: [code] <z:enterCredentialsForm id="form1" /> [/code] re-engineering this is a major undertaking and not an interim solution. thanks for your help. disclaimer: this is not my design or code. the guy that came up with this no longer works here. ;) Loading...
