	' basically, the point was that I didn't want someone to select 30 for the month of february
	' so it resubmits to the page(that could be costly depending on what else is goin on) with the selected
	' day,month,year and it sets/resets the days according to the month and year so the user cannot select

'Returns: creates a simple html form of hidden fields from a recordset 
'
'Inputs:
'			RS = a recordset object
'     intColumnSplit = the number at which to stop the first column, the rest of the fields will go to the next
'     strFormName = a string of the name of the form
'     strFormMethod = a string of the forms method i.e. "post"
'     strFormAction = a string of the forms action
'			strButton = a string of html for the submit and other action type buttons
'     strEditFlag = a string of whether to fill the txtboxes with requested false, true or false
'
'Notes: real simple, just lines them up in a simple table and gives a simple submit button
