krancmm said:What about plants that don't appear in any valid databases but are used to sell plants? Neither Accepted nor Synonym.


I think for that we will need a third option: "Invalid".

More #2 above. Is it possible to capitalize Accepted and Synonym rather than all lower case?


That's done.

If the full names were in a drop down (with type-ahead of course Whistling ) that would sure save typing as well as providing consistency.


A pulldown wouldn't support type-ahead since it would simply be a "choose one" pull down select field. We would have to pre-populate the list with all the options we wanted.

The alternative is a text field where you can type what you wish.

#5. Text field that becomes an automatic hyperlink?


Yes, easily done.
