Same here! Me too I started writing an own API for rendering accessible 
FORMS based on the TCA of a DB table. But it is far from being complete. 
Only INPUT TEXT / HIDDEN, CHECKBOXES, FILEUPLOAD, SELECT are supported 
by now. A good thing: nicely and dynamically rendered with LABEL tag. 
Evaluating methods are still missing a lot!

So I decided to dig deeper into Stefans sg_zfelib which for me seems to 
be the most elaborated one. Unfortunately I haven't got it to work yet.

I am trying to follow Stefan's STEP-BY-STEP but somehow I don't get 
displayed anything. Are there any other important steps I might have 
missed? But in order not to capture this thread I will post this in the 
ENGLISH list. So if anybody has some hints (maybe Stefan!? :) ) please 
answer there...

Cheers,
Jochen
