Hey list,

Is there any way to use flexforms in a backend module AND later access it's
values in the same backend module?

We want to extend aux_newsmailer to enable user to select records, which
should be sent and so have to select records in BE and read out (at
sending), what was selected.

Because of it's a backend module, we can't access pibase::get_FFValue
(right?) - so is there any solution or any better way to give user the
ability to select multiple records out of a list (of tt_news records).

Steffen

You can see how code in tslib_pibase works and do the same. Generally it means decoding xml to array and accessing array. But don't do a home made solution because there are several flexform formats. TYPO3 know them all and handle transparently for you. See tslib_pibase.
