I used to customize the list item forms (new/edit/display) in the farm solution which is quite straight forward. Now, I am working on a project which only allows sandboxed solutions to customize the list item forms. Obviously, I am no longer able to deploy the dll to the GAC or bin. I think of two solutions, one is to create a visual webpart which requires quite a bit of heavy lifting work. The other solution would be using InfoPath form which require less coding and has the flexibility of adding repeated sections. I kind of prefer the InfoPath form approach. But I am not sure whether there will be some kind of difficulties/limitations during the development.
Did anyone ever customize the list item forms in the sandboxed solutions? Could you share your experience?
Thanks,
Perry
You don’t need to write any code. The default XSLT Form Web Part can be used with a link configured to the form xsl.
