Is it possible in Drupal 6.x to have a custom node with multiple items of the same type - but dynamically generated.

say for example a user profile page - with multiple "website" entries - the user would be presented with one text field initially, but with an add button to add additional website entries.

another example might be educational qualifications - some users might have a few, others might have quite a lot of them.

basically, its an ability for the user to add text field input types dynamically on the custom node form.

is this possible in Drupal 6.x?

found it.. in D6 you need to set the "Number of values" in your cck field type to "unlimited".

that'll then activate Ahah and present you with an "add more" button on your form.

but my next question is - can you apply that "add more button" to more than just one field at the same time, in D6?

theres a good example here (screenshot) , where the add subwidget button will add values for 3 field types..
