I'm trying to figure out why ZF3 encodes my element's class string, but can't find anything about that behaviour on the internet.
$this->add([
'type' => 'Button',
'name' => 'submitLogin',
'options' => [
'label' => '<i class="zmdi zmdi-check"></i>',
'label_options' => [
'disable_html_escape' => true,
]
],
'attributes' => [
'type' => 'submit',
'class' => 'btn btn--icon login__block__btn',
],
]);
becomes
<button type="submit" name="submitLogin" class="btn btn--icon login__block__btn" value=""><i class="zmdi zmdi-check"></i></button>
I think this is an abstract concept. Generally we take some steps when we work with data. We filter input values and escape outputs. This is a security philosophy.
Zend Framework did the same thing while something is about security. This means this behavior is by default. ZF escapes attributes' values when it is being displayed onto the browser. ZF only allows non-escaping through explicit options like you did for the label's content above.
You will get some concept via this issue on github where Matthew said:
Secure by default is the mantra

I have a multi select field that is defined by TCA that way:
'type' => [
'exclude' => true,
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:extension/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_db.xlf:tx_extension.type',
'config' => [
'type' => 'select',
'renderType' => 'selectCheckBox',
'items' => [
['LLL:EXT:extension/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_db.xlf:tx_extension.type.b', 'b'],
['LLL:EXT:extension/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_db.xlf:tx_extension.type.w', 'w'],
],
'size' => 1,
'maxitems' => 2,
'eval' => 'required'
],
],
In the backend form everything works as expected, but when selecting the data in a frontend controller from the database, for example by ->findAll(), I only get 'b', 'w' or 'b,w' as values.
Is there a simple way to get the 'friendly' names?
When using relations to other tables, the values are getting resolved, but not when using static items as values for the select.
I was thinking about using the translate view helper <f:translate key="{value}" extensionName="extension" /> but this will fail when more than one item is selected.
Then I was trying to write an own view helper but failed with the initialisation of the translation factory service (that does not exist in TYPO3 v8.7!!!). Then calling the TranslateViewHelper::renderStatic() method failed because I did not find a way to get the RenderingContextInterface what is needed as third parameter.
Anyway, isn't there a smarter way to solve my problem (in good old TYPO3 v9 ☹️)?
I try to get values for my tca:
'config' => [
'type' => 'select',
'renderType' => 'selectSingle',
'items' => [
['Herr', 0],
['Frau', 1]
],
'size' => 1,
'maxitems' => 2,
'eval' => 'required'
],
my form.html has this select types:
<label>Anrede</label>
<f:form.select name="salutation" class="form-control">
<f:form.select.option value="0">Herr</f:form.select.option>
<f:form.select.option value="1">Frau</f:form.select.option>
</f:form.select>
but i get always the first item: Herr, can somebody tell me what i am doing wrong?
For frontend forms with Extbase you will need a proper TypoScript conffiguration, a PHP newAction and/or createAction method and your Fluid template.
Based on the additional information now there are two options that came to my mind:
Either the validation and storage of your form values is not
configured properly, so they will be removed on the way to the
database.
Or you might have rendered the field twice with the same name in the
frontend form, thus making the last entry the winner.
So please double check the fields first before digging deeper into the storage process.

Okay this is a weird one to me...Usually i get this error when there's a problem with the date/time format, but it's throwing up on a hidden field, even though it's set to view formhidden...Has this happened to anyone before?
That's the view:
echo $this->formHidden($steppedEdge->get('glassSections'));
This is the form fieldset:
$this->add([
'name' => 'glassSections',
'type' => \Zend\Form\Element\Hidden::class,
'attributes' => [
'id' => 'glassSections',
],
]);
Any advice would be appreciated!
It's because it was an entity in that field...
I am trying to create a dynamic value for a form attribute that is auto-populated based on a previous setting stored in the database. It works fine in HTML with a little Laravel and looks like:
<input type="text" class="class" id="firstName" placeholder="First Name" value="{{ $user->firstName }}">
But I want to fully generate the entire form in Laravel. I'm unsure how to pass the value into the array. I can't seem to get the form to pull the information. Here is how it is currently looking:
{{ Form::text('first_name', '', [
'class' => 'class',
'id' => 'firstName',
'placeholder' => 'First Name',
'value' => $user->firstName
])}}
Try this:
{{ Form::text('first_name', $user->firstName, [
'class' => 'class',
'id' => 'firstName',
'placeholder' => 'First Name'
])}}
For more information regarding this topic, visit this
See, if that works.
To specify a default value in laravel's form generator, the second value you pass in is made for you:
{{ Form::text('first_name', $user->firstName,
[
'class' => 'class',
'id' => 'firstName',
'placeholder' => 'First Name',
]
) }}
Please note that from laravel 5, being published next week, the form helpers are removed (and for the actual state the installable replacement packages don't work very well/without bugs). So if you are planning on upgrading to laravel 5 better don't use this, instead go with html form elements.
I am brand new to Zend and I've been given a project to make adjustments on. I'd like to add html to the labels for my form elements but I can't seem to get it right.
Here's what I have:
$this->addElement('text', 'school_name', array(
'filters' => array('StringTrim'),
'validators' => array(
array('StringLength', false, array(0, 150)),
),
'required' => true,
'label' => 'Name* :<img src="picture.png">,
'size' => '90',
));
As is, of course, the <img src="picture.png"> text gets escaped and the whole string is displayed.
I've read that I need to use 'escape' => false in some capacity but I can't figure out where/how to use it in my specific case.
Any help would be great. Thanks!
After calling addElement fetch the label's decorator and change the escape setting:
$form->getElement('school_name')->getDecorator('label')->setOption('escape', false);
If you use this type of label a lot, you should consider writing a custom decorator.
You can also use the disable_html_escape in 'label_options' when adding an element to the form:
$this->add(array(
....
'options' => array(
'label' => '<span class="required">Name</span>,
'label_options' => array(
'disable_html_escape' => true,
)
),
...
));
