[Grok-dev] Customized grok.AddForm

[Tim Cook]

I have an add form (below).  The generic one does schema validation as
expected.  But when I assign a custom template, it does not do schema
validation.  The setUpWidgets function doesn't work in either case.

I created the custom template by copying the source output from the
generic (Grok generated) form and then adding some CSS and additional
text and graphics.   The only thing I  changed in the <form> itself was
the action in order to point to the view template in my previous email
about update().  

Of course original just calls itself:  
  <form action="http://localhost:8080/dsedemo/immunizationsform"
      method="post" class="edit-form"
      enctype="multipart/form-data">

I changed it to:

<form  tal:attributes="action python:view.url('immcalc')"
      method="post" class="edit-form"
      enctype="multipart/form-data">


So my questions are: 

1. Why no schema  validation in the customized form?

2. Why does the setUpWidgets function not work in either case?

Thanks,
Tim
