Hi Mario,

1. Please don't hijack threads, but start a new one with a new posting.
2. Currently, there is no built-in TCA-rendering for the FE, this will 
be done until 5.0 with a T3-formlib, but until then you can use an 
extension for this. There are half a dozen in TER (look for fe form 
rendering), none of which is canonical.

Greetings,
Michael
