New datatype: <text, image, movie>

Federico Maggi	Monday 27 March 2006 1:12:09 pm Hi, I am going to write an extension in order to provide a new datatype for attributes, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel so I ask for suggestions. I need a multi-field datatype (like "Author", that has "Name" and "Mail") with arbitrary cardinality (like "Author", where you can specify "Add author" and add how may authors you need). I may want to call my new datatype "TextWithImageAndMovie" because an attribute of such type must be a collection of triples <text, image(file), movie(file)>. Do you have any suggestion/starting point/similar datatypes or whatever useful to get me noticed about? Thanks PS - If my question is not so clear, please let me know!

Hi,
I am going to write an extension in order to provide a new datatype for attributes, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel so I ask for suggestions.

I may want to call my new datatype

"TextWithImageAndMovie"

because an attribute of such type must be a collection of triples <text, image(file), movie(file)>. Do you have any suggestion/starting point/similar datatypes or whatever useful to get me noticed about?

Thanks
