[TYPO3-project-formidable] SVN revision 107: Typoscript driven

[Jerome Schneider]

There's a typo in the second TS-code example ( missing .my_form on line 3 )

Sould be:

#CODE===============================================================
config.my_form = FORMIDABLE
config.my_form < config.tx_ameosformidable.quickconf.nodb
config.my_form.elements {
	10 = renderlet:BUTTON
	10.label = Click me
	10.onclick {
		runat = ajax
		userobj.php (
			return $this->majixDebug("Hello !");
		)
	}
}
#END OF CODE--------------------------------------------------------
