Question

I have a form for adding an item – its name, its price, the date when it was bought and some notes. But since there will be a lot of items, it will be uncomfortable to submit each one by itself. What I want to do is to repeat the form several times and with one commit several items to go to the databae. Something like this:

Name | Price | Date | Notes
Name | Price | Date | Notes
Name | Price | Date | Notes

Submit

where the user will write and commit 3 items at once. Sorry for the bad explaining, I hope that it won’t be too messy. I should implement this with Symfony2. Thank you very much for the help! 🙂

Read about embeded forms. Or collection widget.
