Rails - Apr 2006 - How to save data with dynamic forms?

Hello,
Imagine I have a form designer, which allow me to design a web form (at
run-time).
I don''t have any idea how to save the data in db (table ddl?), so I can
easily list or search the data.

I though of writing the hash directly from the form to db, but I think there
must be better solution(s)?

Any idea, articles or design pattern on the subject?

Thank you all in advance,
Dunnil

What''s your schema look like for having run-time defined forms? I would
think something like:

form_type --< field
form --< field_value
field_value >-- field
form >-- form_type

(Like my whacky crow''s foot notation?)

If this is the case, then each entry in your form is actually a row, so 
you can use collection-based form helpers (<%= input
"field_value[]"
...) and get it all done pretty easily. There''s a section on using 
collection forms in the Agile book.
