Progress rocks the mother f@#%@#ing house

Check out stringed.org NOW!! Updates include:

Customizeable actions - specify what a user can do with an object (add, edit, delete, view). You can see this in the book list, it shows a "view" link. If I don't specify "edit" for an object, the whole site has been updated to account for this, so you won't be able to trick the site into being able to edit something that isn't editable (or edible :-p )... or deleteable for that matter.

Lists are perfect - As well as the below mentioned "many to many problem" (which you can see at work on the "Library" form), all lists that are sequenceable can be sorted (See Chapters on a book and Books in a library). You can add a list to an object that hasn't been saved yet. (This was more of an "uncomfortable with the greatness of 'dumb'" situation, as I just had a line of code that said "if the object hasn't yet been stored into the database, don't process lists". You would have seen those repercussions yesterday if you logged on, but not anymore). Obviously, also, the subforms work perfectly.

Bitmasked int field - This can be seen at work on the "Library" form also. Right now it takes parameters for the values, but I will write plugins for it that it gets it from the database and shows them as checkboxes like they are now. There's also a corresponding output component for bitmasked integers.

Still a lot to do... I have to have it so you can specify something's a file field, and make a cool control for that, and there's probably other types of fields that I haven't accounted for yet.

Also, I registered the domain name that Salzburg will be found at later, but I can't tell you it. Secrets rock even more than progress.
