    2 dimensional Multiple Textstring (ucomponents) ?

    I like the multiple textstring datatype from uComponents a lot. Is there by any chance a similar datatype that allows 2 dimensional input? 

    It would prove very handy for use with for example opening hours.

    @Dimitris: thanks a lot, that's what i needed!

    @Hendy: does this also work with monthnames instead of weekdays ?

    So I created the textstring array datatype and assigned it to a document type, however when i try to put some content in it, it won't create extra rows. It does create as many rows as i want in the datatype-setup page, but no extra rows in the content section. I'm pretty sure the settings are correct, and now I just noticed that the multiple textstring datatype is also not letting me create new lines (anymore).

    I tried reinstalling the 3.0.2 package and recreate both the datatype and contentpage, but no help there.

    Anybody have any clue on this?

    Hi,

    In the datatype settings for the Textstring Array, do you masybe have the Maximum # of Rows set to 1?  In that case it wouldn't let you add any new rows (actually the +/- buttons won't even show).  To make it unlimited it should be -1.

    If that's not the case, can you check to see if you're getting a javascript error when clicking the Add button?

    I figured out what was causing the problem: The textstring array datatype conflicted with the googlemaps type on the same page. I threw the google maps out, and immediately everything worked.

    Hi Jan,

    Curious what browser, version of Umbraco, and version of Google Maps DataType you are using?  They all seem to play nicely here.  If I can reproduce I can look into getting it fixed though.
