Please, help me.
I'm creating a new question type (modifying gapselect question). I have some input forms in my question renderer (see screenshot below). In get_expected_data() I have:
$vars = array();
foreach ($this->places as $place => $notused) {
$vars[$this->field($place)] = PARAM_TEXT;
}
return $vars;
But it takes only numbers.
Are there ideas, what's wrong?
numbers entered
letters entered
HTML code of inputs:
$inputattributes = array(
'type' => 'text',
'name' => $inputname,
'value' => $currentanswer,
'id' => $this->box_id($qa, 'p' . $place),
'size' => 30,
'class' => 'form-control',
);
$input = html_writer::empty_tag('input', $inputattributes);
Check that the type is set to text and not to number for all the inputs
e.g.
// wrong
$mform->addElement('number', 'email', get_string('email'));
// correct
$mform->addElement('text', 'email', get_string('email'));
Alternatively check there are no rules associated with the element to enforce numeric input.
$mform->addRule('email', get_string('email'), 'numeric', ....

In renderform I have one input field and its type is "text". How to set a value to that input field, so at every time when the form is loaded the value should be displayed. I am using Prestashop 1.7.
Sample code:
array(
'type' => 'text',
'label' => $this->l('VENDOR_SERVER_IP'),
'name' => 'serverip',
'size' => 50,
'class' => 'fixed-width-xxl',
'required' => true,
'desc' => $this->l('Please enter your server ip.')
),
You need to use the fields_value property
$helper = new HelperForm();
//...
$helper->fields_value = array(
'serverip' => 'x:x:x:x'
);
You have no option to pass default value of input field in the form array. To provide default value, you have to use fields_value property of form helper.
$hlper = new HelperForm();
$value = 'Your already saved value if any';
if (empty($value)) {
$value = 'your default value';
}
$hlper->field_values = array('YOUR_FORM_INPUT_NAME' => $value);
echo $hlper->generate($your_form_array);
Some how I managed to get it work. But still the result is not coming along with the autocomplete.
Posting my latest code now,
the textfield code
$form['town'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#required' => TRUE,
'#autocomplete_path' => 'hfind/town/autocomplete',
);
menu function code
function hfind_menu() {
$items = array();
$items['hfind/town/autocomplete'] = array (
'title' => 'Autocomplete for cities',
'page callback' => 'hfind_town_autocomplete',
'access arguments' => array('use autocomplete'),
'type' => MENU_CALLBACK
);
return $items;
}
the callback function code
function hfind_town_autocomplete($string){
$matches = array();
$result = db_select('towns', 't')
->fields('t', array('town_name'))
->condition('town_name', '%' . db_like($string) . '%', 'LIKE')
->execute();
foreach ($result as $row) {
$matches[$row->city] = check_plain($row->city);
}
drupal_json_output($matches);
}
I hope this may the final edit.
The current situation is, autocomplete is working
The url is hfind/town/autocomplete/mtw
but it is not able to find any data from the database. I found why and unable to fix it.
It is because in the last function I've added above the $string needs to be the 'search query' but it is always querying the database as 'autocomplete'. I mean the $string variable always having the value 'autocomplete' instead of user typed value.
One more problem is, even after providing the permission to all types of user to access search autocomplete on the forms, guests users are not able to use the feature.
Please please someone help me..
`drupal_json_output()` instead of `drupal_to_js` and remove `print` .
<code>
hook_menu() {
$items['cnetusers/autocomplete'] = array(
'title' => 'Auto complete path',
'page callback' => 'cnetusers_employees_autocomplete',
'page arguments' => array(2, 3, 4, 5),
'access arguments' => array('access user profiles'),
'type' => MENU_CALLBACK,
);
return $item;
}
// my autocomplete function is like this
function cnetusers_employees_autocomplete() {
// write your sql query
$matches["$record->ename $record->elname [id: $record->uid]"] = $value;
}
if (empty($matches)) {
$matches[''] = t('No matching records found.');
}
drupal_json_output($matches);
}
$form['disc_info']['approval'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#title' => t('Approval By'),
'#autocomplete_path' => 'cnetusers/autocomplete',
);

Following CI user_guide, I have created a configuration file named "form_validation.php" with in it the following sets:
$config = array(
'user/create' => array(
array(
'field' => 'id',
'label' => '',
'rules' => ''
),
array(
'field' => 'first_name',
'label' => 'lang:First name',
'rules' => 'required|max_length[30]'
),...
),
'user/update' => array(
array(
'field' => 'id',
'label' => '',
'rules' => ''
),
array(
'field' => 'first_name',
'label' => 'lang:First name',
'rules' => 'required|max_length[30]'
),...
)
);
In my 'user' controller, when I call the 'create' method, hence with the URL http://localhost/my_ci_application/user/create, the statement $this->form_validation->run() automatically runs the first set of rules defined in my configuration file. This is the expected behaviour from what I read in the user guide.
But when I run the following URL http://localhost/my_ci_application/user/update/1 to update the user whose ID is 1, it does not automatically load the 'user/update' rules set. It seems like because of the parameter, CI expects to find a 'user/update/1' rules set, which of course I cannot create because the ID of my users will vary all the time when calling this method.
Am I understanding this right? If yes, then that's a pity as I thought standard CI URL were formed like: controller/method/parameters... so I would expect the form validation class to only consider the first two URI segments?!
FYI, if I write in my user.update method the following, my validation rules work fine:
$this->form_validation->run('user/update')
So my question is really if I understood the autoloading of rules properly or not, and if there is anything we can do to autoload those rules even with methods having some parameters.
thank you very much in advance.
In your form_validation.php file:
$CI =& get_instance();
$config = array(
'user/update/' . $CI->uri->segment(3) => array(
....
)
);
if i understant this question u will need call validation, for example:
$this->lang->load('form_validation', 'portuguese'); //if u have order language
if($this->form_validation->run('user/update') == FALSE)
{
//msg error
}
else{
//save
}
To get the value for the url dowel u need:
$this->uri->segment(3);
i hope this has helped
You can extend the library to achieve this
application/libraries/MY_Form_validation.php
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class MY_Form_validation extends CI_Form_validation {
function run($group = '')
{
if($group == '')
{
$group = '/' . implode('/', array_slice($this->CI->uri->rsegment_array(), 0, 2));
}
return parent::run($group);
}
}
I am using zend form. I want to validate a field and want to allow only flat and integer values in the field. It means user can either enter any floating value like 2.0 or 3.56, etc OR 4 or 7, etc. But I dont want to receive alpha numeric or alphabet input.
I have used digit validator but it only allows digits not floating number.
Can any body tell me how to put both validations together?
My code is as follows
$parent_affiliate_commission = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('parent_affiliate_commission');
$parent_affiliate_commission->setRequired(true)
->addFilter('StringTrim')
->addFilter('StripTags')
->addValidator('Digits')
->setAttrib('class', 'small')
->addValidator('StringLength', false, array(2, 100))
->setDecorators(array('ViewHelper', 'errors'))
It would be really easy to create and use a custom validator. You could validate simply by using PHP is_int and is_float functions and still do in the 'Zend way'.
By using the callback method I have validated the value in numeric.Because it will not allow the characters.
$inputFilter->add(
$factory->createInput(
array(
'name' => 'proximity',
'required' => true,
'validators' => array(
array(
'name' => 'Callback',
'options' => array(
'messages' => array(
\Zend\Validator\Callback::INVALID_VALUE => 'The proximity value should be numbers'
),
'callback' => function (
$value,
$context = array())
{
$isValid = is_numeric(
$value);
return $isValid;
}
)
)
)
)));
I'm trying to include a module form in a panel and I've tried using drupal_get_form(), but not sure I'm using it correctly.
In the organic groups module, there's a function to render an og_broadcast_form. It's called within a page_callback in og.module:
// Broadcast tab on group node.
$items['node/%node/broadcast'] = array(
'title' => 'Broadcast',
'page callback' => 'drupal_get_form',
'page arguments' => array('og_broadcast_form', 1),
'access callback' => 'og_broadcast_access',
'access arguments' => array(1),
'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
'file' => 'og.pages.inc',
'weight' => 7
);
And in og.pages.inc, the function is:
function og_broadcast_form($form_state, $node) {
drupal_set_title(t('Send message to %group', array('%group' => $node->title)));
if (!empty($form_state['post'])) {
drupal_set_message(t('Your message will be sent to all members of this group.'));
}
$form['subject'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#title' => t('Subject'),
'#size' => 70,
'#maxlength' => 250,
'#description' => t('Enter a subject for your message.'),
'#required' => TRUE,
);
$form['body'] = array(
'#type' => 'textarea',
'#title' => t('Body'),
'#rows' => 5,
'#cols' => 90,
'#description' => t('Enter a body for your message.'),
'#required' => TRUE
);
$form['send'] = array('#type' => 'submit', '#value' => t('Send message'));
$form['gid'] = array('#type' => 'value', '#value' => $node->nid);
return $form;
}
I've tried a number of variations of drupal_get_form:
print drupal_get_form('og_broadcast_form', NULL, arg(1)); //where arg 1 is the node id from the url
print drupal_get_form('og_broadcast_form');
print drupal_get_form('og_broadcast_form', &$form_state, arg(1));
print drupal_get_form('og_broadcast_form', $n); //where $n is node_load(arg(1));
print drupal_get_form('og_broadcast_form', &$form_state, $n);
etc., etc... Is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do here?
FYI.. your problem is that you're attempting to load a form located in another modules include file.
The function is located in og.pages.inc and you'll need to make a call to:
module_load_include('inc', 'og', 'og.pages');
This must be done before you can grab the form.
If drupal_get_form is given the name of a function as it's first argument, that will be both the form_id and a function to be called to generate the $form array.
On line 3 of the function code, we have $args = func_get_args();, this is used by drupal_get_form to collect any or all additional arguments you may want to pass to your form-building function.
You should be using drupal_get_form('og_broadcast_form', node_load(arg(1)));.
Are you sure you should be using print and not return? I have recently learned they do very different things in the theming system. I have used drupal_get_form in this way to populate the contents of a block successfully, but at no point did I print to the screen myself.
EDIT: The full node object and not the nid because %node in a menu path uses a wildcard loader to pass the node_load(arg(1)) on to whatever function is being called.
drupal_get_form gets the form for you. have you tried print drupal_render(drupal_get_form('whatever'))) ?
drupal_get_form() only accepts one argument, the $form_id.
http://api.drupal.org/api/function/drupal_get_form/6
Run a hook_form_alter() and var_dump($form_id). That will give you the $form_id, and when you pass that to drupal_get_form(), it should return the rendered form.
