While most of my app is a typical, PHPRunner-appropriate app, I need to have a "ultility" or "calculation" page which allows a user to do a collection of complex calculations to play with "what if" scenarios. They fill in some subset of fields (appropriate to the calculation they want to run), pick the calculation type and hit calculate. The values are just transitory and don't come from any database fields and aren't intended to be kept anywhere.
It would seem to me that PHPRunner would be a fairly good place to do such a utility page. PHPRunner has a nice, feature rich WYSIWYG screen editor, events, etc. I know I can to the page externally and include it, blah blah blah, but I like the tool and would like to stay in it.
But most everything I've seen is VERY closely tied to a table. Screens gen up from tables, and we just move naughty bits around on the page and style them and add some code behind events and so on.
So...can we easily make pages from scratch that are NOT attached to any table from a database, repleat with all sorts of check boxes and single line edits and spinners and all manner of other controls, all with attached events and other such niceties?
