Another type of specialized container that you can add is a container for…an optional section, a set of controls that we don't normally need but we might need.…So rather than create a separate form for them, or rather than have them appear…in the form when they're rarely used, we allow the user either to insert or…delete the set of controls.…We have another piece of functionality that we want to add to our form, and…this isn't unusual. You have a form. It's working.…People are using it and somebody else says, "Ah, let's grab another type of…request here because it would be easier than getting users to use a form they…are not already used to using."…So the functionality that we are going to add is to allow the users also to say…that this post is actually going to create the need for an entirely new content…area, in other words a new section of our Internet site, or intranet site.…
The reason that this is important and belongs in its own section is that we're…not going to simply take the user's word for it.…
