How does Apex form handle update DML?

Kathryn SJun 12 2008 — edited Jun 12 2008
I have a table that has a before-update trigger that fires when certain columns are updated. When I go into the form, the trigger seems to fire even when I don't change any of the listed columns. If I do the update in Toad, the trigger does not fire, as expected.
<p>
So my question is, does the Apex form check for differences between what exists in the database and what is submitted and only updates changed columns or does it essentially update all columns?

thanks.
