[TYPO3-irre] Is it possible? Could a form be defined according to a record value.

Hi Malte,

thanks for your reply.
I have seen the example you refer to (fig 11, isn't it?), but I did not
explain myself very well. 
It seems to me that what I need is more complicated than that.

Say both tasks A and B are assigned to Joe. Now, Joe may only Pass or
Fail task A, but he may get any point from 0 to 10 for task B. When I
insert grades for Joe, I would like to have different forms for A and B,
say a simple checkbox for the former case, a select form for the latter
one.  Later a further task C is added with a even different grading
policy (say such that you need a textarea form). 

Speaking in terms of the Hotel, Offer and Price example, the point seems
to be that which form I want to see as to insert a price for a given
hotel_offer record would depend on   the Offer record itself.  

Hope I am saying something which makes sense :-)
my best 
mario
