Hello, I ask myself if this module would allow not only realtime validation but also realtime calculations and changes in other form field contents. Thanks!

I need more information. What do you mean by "realtime calculations"? Please be very specific.
Thanks

Here there is an example made with Drupal (but using javascript code in the form):

http://www.wyvern.de/adventures/drachenfest/de/node/445

There you can see that changing the options some fields change and calculate new values.

PS: sorry, I couldn't find an English drupal example :(

The functionality on that page is not AJAX functionality. Also, that kind of behaviour is application-specific. There is no way to implement this into this module.

I don't understand, if the validation function is affecting not only its own field but other ones, changing it values, why not? Did you mean that Ajax form will just affect messaging in real time but not changing field content if the validation function does so?

On that case I will have to use javascript...

DaniOrama,

That is correct. This module only relays messages from the server. It does not do any application specific processing.
