Easiest way would be to add another table 'animal_images' and add the animal's id as FK when you store a picture for that animal. This way, you can add as many images as you like.

Hope it helps,

Yes, but doing it i should have 2 different/sepparated forms isn't?
Or there is away to integrate both forms?

Yes, you'll have 2 forms in builder but, with custom coding you could use Ajax to display/submit your new images and js to dynamically add an "add" & "remove" button after each one.

It's been discussed here before, try searching "multiple forms" and "save multiple tables" to get started and also "Ajaxify". That should get you started...

Good luck,

This is what you call a component builder. I was able to master using this in a very short time and the resulting component works like a charm. Not just a basic component builder but a fully working component builder with forms fields tables all ready to go. You can make the list and item views to display in the front and back end. Also there is a great forum just starting to evolve and I'm sure this will grow very rapidly when you all realise how good this tool is.
