How to reuse a form?
Hi,
I have a form that I want to reuse for another action of a page.
Q1) How can I define a t:form and just reuse the exact definitions without
having to copy/paste the whole form all the time?
Q2) How can I place an additional field (I require a dropdown t:select) into
that form? Without having to copy/paste the whole form code again (which
would cause a lot of dublication)?
It is similar to this:
<t:form>
<div class="t-beaneditor">
<t:beaneditor object="myObj" >
<div class="t-beaneditor-row">
<t:label for="checkbox">
<t:checkbox t:id="checkbox" t:mixings="frag1" />
</div>
<t:formfragment t:id="frag1 />
</t:beaneditor>
Could someone help?`
Thanks!

Ad 1) Wrap it in a component
Ad 2) I'm not sure, but my guess would be that you can supply extra
stuff as a block

In addition to Thiago's suggestion, I often set a default for the block:
@Parameter(value="block:defaultAdditionalStuff", defaultPrefix =
BindingConstants.LITERAL)
@Property
private Block additionalStuff;
<t:form>
...
<t:delegate to="additionalStuff"/>
...
</t:form>
<t:block t:id="defaultAdditionalStuff">
Only show this when an additionalStuff parameter has not been supplied
</t:block>

Nope if you want to add stuff to your form when using the component your
created. You don't need blocks for just using the If component in the way
you used above.
One example, not tested:
In the component class:
@Parameter(defaultPrefix = BindingConstants.LITERAL)
@Property
private Block additionalStuff;
In the component template:
<t:form>
...
<t:delegate to="additionalStuff"/>
...
</t:form>
Usage:
<t:thecomponentyoucreatedwiththeforminside>
<p:additionalStuff>
anything you want
</p:additionalStuff>
</t:thecomponentyoucreatedwiththeforminside>

So am I doing it this way?
<t:if test="isSelectDrowdownToBeShown">
<t:delegate to="selectBlock" />
</t:if>
<t:block t:id="selectBlock">
<t:select .../>
</t:block>
Is this the proper way of using blocks for my need in Q2?

Put it inside a component, use this component anywhere you want. :)

Block parameters. Check
http://tapestry.apache.org/component-templates.html for <t:block> and the
parameter namespace.
