i want to be able to add elements within the <form></form> section of my pages.
specifically i want to add
<input type="hidden" name="foo" value="bar" />
and i also want to be able to add dropdown menus or radio buttons whose values i can use in my trigger scripts.
it seems to me there's no way to do this without really hacking things up.
am i wrong?
tks

if i do:
$opts['cgi']['persist']['foo'] = 'bar';
in the template, then:
$foo = $opts['cgi']['persist']['foo'];
in my trigger, $foo is uninitialized.
one of the most confusing things about phpmyedit is all of these vars it uses. i'm not clear which are global, which aren't, which are persistent, which aren't.
it's a bit frustrating.

creating extra buttons:
either make $opts['display']['form'] = false; which will turn off <form> tags (so you have to display them manually)
or: see button display order bug report (and report how it behaves :) )
calling hidden variables in your triggers:
use of $this->get_cgi_vars is recomended (since variables can change from GET to POST and back)
