Playing around with my first web app using the above. I am at the point now where I need to decide whether to have one form multi-tasking between query, submit and modify mode - or define the same form multiple times in run mode functions.

I am using Template Toolkit with CGI::Formbuilder and I cant work out how to reference the multiple buttons generated from the CGI::Formbuilder initialization param

submit => [qw/Submit Modify Query Delete Cancel/],
The doc refs state  [% form.submit %] as the placeholder for a submit button. You can also ref them by name as in  [% form.field.[name] %]. But the name of all the submit buttons is _submit.

I can get around this by redefining the form each time in a different run mode and only having one submit button. Is there a better solution. Simon
