Multilink property classhelp advice sought.

A new multilink property classhelp call does not appear to
work.

It pops up OK but it does not update the associated
property.

It's a property I've added to the User class as follows...

The relevant schema components are:

  feature = Class(db, "feature",
                  name=String(),
                  synopsis=String());
  feature.setkey("name")

  user = Class(db, "user",
               username=String(),
               password=Password(),
               address=String(),
               realname=String(),
               phone=String(),
               organisation=String(),
               alternate_addresses=String(),
               queries=Multilink('query'),
               roles=String(), # comma-separated string of
Role names
               features=Multilink("feature"),
               timezone=String())
  user.setkey("username")

and the template addition made to user.item.html:

  <tr>
    <th
i18n:translate="">Features</th>
    <td>
      <span tal:replace="structure
context/features/field" />
      <span tal:replace="structure
python:db.feature.classhelp(
                property='features')" />
    </td>
  </tr>

What am I likely to be doing wrong here?

Is it possible that the added multilink property  needs edit
rights 
added to it?

I don't think this is the problem.

The property I added was to the user class and the schema
already allows users
permission to edit properties of their own user item.

Further more the problem occurs when logged in as Admin.

I forgot to mention, I *can* update the property if I type
in the value I want.

I therefore evidently have permission to do so.

The problem is that the classhelp javascript box does not
seem to update the
associated property field when I select various values and
click Submit.

Nothing. There's a bug in the user form (I guess no-one has
ever tried to use 
a popup with the user form before ;)

Add name="itemSynopsis" to the <form> tag
and all will be well.

Thanks Richard, that's fixed it.

Cheers, Bruce.
