Rollout with textfields created in loop

[lo]

Hi all!

I'm new to the forum and kind of new to maxscript. I have two question. I have tried to create a rollout with the number of textfields dependent of how many lights there are in the scene.
This is my test code but it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

rollout test "test"
(
for i in lights do
(
edittext test
)
)
theNewFloater = newRolloutFloater "test" 300 220
addRollout test theNewFloater

see http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=98&t=1020720

The second question is: When should I use createDialog and when should I use the newRolloutFloater

createDialog for when you want to display just one rollout definition, and newRolloutFloater for when you want many collapsable rollout definitions together in one floater.
