ok, thank you, nice tip. i hoped there is a simpler way than render the
whole form and html with an own function. some threads before i thought
i can use the tt_content-table and just modify the config of the columns
in $TCA, but i didn't find out how to change it for my content element
without changing all the other content elements. I'm wondering that only
so a few people seem to work in that direction.
