Yes this is possible. An append or prepend text field (QuickBase calls this property "Log entries" now) accumulates a short log of changes to itself. However, when used in conjunction with the image onload technique you can gather those fields that have been changed along with the old and new values and stamp this information into the append or prepend text field. In other words, the append or prepend text field would never receive human keystrokes - rather the script injected into the page will monitor for changes to field values and assemble a string of text reporting these changes and automatically insert the generated text into the append or prepend text field. When the form is ultimately saved the append or prepend text field will be holding a miniature report of changes to all fields being logged and QuickBase will stamp the date/time and user using the native operation of the append or prepend field.. This may seem fantastic that you can do this but the edit form actually contains both the new values of the fields and the old values of the fields in hidden form elements.
I will come up with an example shortly - I have to finish watching my morning cartoons now.

I don't care about the stupid points. Asking a new question just helps focus someone tagging on a new question to an old post. But don't even bother since there is a demo I created that does this and I should have included it in my reply. I just have to find it ...
