[pmwiki-users] Struggling with Cookbook/WikiForms

Hi,

 I have Cookbook/WikiForms installed and working.  3 questions I hope
someone can hlep with.

1)  I would like to use one or more fields in conjunction with wiki
Categories - I know there is a category feild type which inserts the
category markup around [[!whatevertext]] from a textbox, but I want to use a
multi-option radio button (Cat1:Cat2:Cat3:Cat4) to force the user to choose
from predefined categories- which will then and inserts the [[! ]] markup
around the chosen categories.

2) More generally; How can one get the form to insert markup (or any other
text) onto the page, with the user being unaware of it on the form? Do you
have to define new field types in the script or can you do it in the form
itself.  Can I add just plain text that will appear on the form - or does it
have to follow a very strict predefined format

3) How can you get the checkbox form element to output 'No' if it is not
checked?

Thanks,

Francis
