[turba] creating entries

[Kevin Conley]

Thanks - that is very helpful. I think i am starting to understand.

There is only one thing i don't really get.

In the attributes.php where you define what fields appear in the form there are 
types and then you can pass params.

Is there some docs on these types and what the params do.

For example - in a type 'text' i see a lot of:

     'params' => array('', 40, 255)

Now i think that first array value is the initial value right?
The second is deplayed value for the input box and the 255 is max input box 
length in the form?

Is that is true what about the 'text' types that don't have a params - what 
value do they use on the form?

I guess i am wondering is there is more doc on these types and how you can 
configure them - there is none in attributes.php.

But what code file would i look at to help that might help?

As always - thanks for HORDE and all time and help!
