[TYPO3-project-formidable] On submitting a form

[François SCHOSSIG]

I do not know if it is great for most of the use cases. But in the  
way I have understood FORMidable working it looks for me like a bug :  
normally FORMidable re-edits the same record if it's uid is given as  
last parameter to the instance of FORMidable. If this is not given, a  
new record is created.

So if somebody has to submit several different forms but with  
information that is close together, this person will not be able to  
reuse the same form (with the go back of the browser), but needs to  
reload a new empty form each time and put again all the information.  
Why not, but then how could it be possible to prevent users to do the  
go back in the browser in this case ? If not, if they use it, they  
will not know about it and we loose information that they think we  
have should have received...

On another side, to modify the last information sendet, you have the  
possibility to use the save button on a form that re-loads the same  
record.

Thanks for ideas.
