If it can't be done three ways in fox, it's not worth doing...

Of course it can be done that way, obviously you are doing it already (and it works), and even I did at times. The "prepare everything in .load() so you can use it when instantiating the controls" was the mantra on my last gig, and that also worked. Now which is better? The one that gives you fewer surprises when working on a form. Surprises take at least half an hour each.
