I was looking for a way to control the visibility of fields based on the value of another one. Essentially, I need to accomplish branching behavior. Since you can't launch a workflow from a survey, I was hoping someone might know an alternate method?

I created a new site and added a list and the Form Settings link is not listed under General Settings. It is listed for the sites that had been created before I intalled and activated the feature. I tried deactivating and reactivating the feature but no luck. Do I need to reinstall to pick up the new site?

so if you dont admin access to the server but are a site admin how do you do this? for now I'm putting some javascript that does the following:

ocontrol = findacontrol(sField);

ocontrol.parentNode.parentNode.style.display="none";

is there a more elegant way to do this?

this tool works great if you're using the standard forms, however if you use custom list form, since they do not implement the ListIterator. is there any way to get this to work with the formfield controls instead of the listiterator?

This tool is great, but it does not work on the Service Request list in the HelpDesk Template. Several of us have asked about this issue and would deeply appreciate your resolution to this problem. Do we need to add the list type ID to the Element.xml file? If so, do you know what the ID for these lists are?

I can confirm it works in a Spanish SharePoint installation. Simply a very good tool!

For those who activated the feature and were not able to view the "Form settings" in list, (i had the same issue)it is because i had activated it for the wrong Web Application :) so in the central administration -> Manage Web Application Features -> Change the Web Application (top right box) to the one you are currently using

Great product...nice work! I have one issue similiar to what others have spoke of. After install, it appears that any list type this applies to, all decriptions disappear. From what I can tell the issue is because when installed, and it gets applied to existing lists, the Field Description is set to Label by default. Since label isn't really an out of box option, could this be changed to default to Control instead? I believe this would resolve the disappearing discriptions on install.
