Not translate select options in Zend Framework 1 - zend-framework

I have a big form with a lot of select elements with a lot of options each one. All translations work well (labels, descriptions, errors), but i don't want to translate the options shown in the select element.
The official guide says nothing about it, please check the following link: http://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.form.standardElements.html#zend.form.standardElements.select
However here it says: http://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.form.standardElements.html#zend.form.standardElements.multiselect "If a translation adapter is registered with the form and/or element, option values will be translated for display purposes. "
I can't remove the translation adapter, so my question is: Is it possible to ignore this element options?
Looking forward to your news.

Add $this->setTranslator(new Zend_Translate_Adapter_Array(array())); at beginning of your form. This will override default translator, and because new one is empty then it will not translate anything.

The Zend_Form_Element_Multi have this:
if ($this->translatorIsDisabled()) {
return false;
}
And there exist this method on Zend_Form_Element
public function setDisableTranslator($flag)
{
$this->_translatorDisabled = (bool) $flag;
return $this;
}
So I've created a method that extends Zend_Form_Element_Select and call:
$this->setDisableTranslator(true);
That solved my question.

Modify all text output by TYPO3

I would like to create a "cleanup" extension that replaces various characters (quotes by guillemets) in all kinds of textfields in TYPO3.
I thought about extending <f:format.html> or parseFunc, but I don't know where to "plug in" so I get to replace output content easily before it's cached.
Any ideas, can you give me an example?
If you don't mind regexing, try this:
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['tslib/class.tslib_fe.php']['cleanUpQuotes'][] = \NAMESPACE\Your\Extension::class;
Insert it into ext_localconf.php and this part is done.
The next step is the class itself:
public function cleanUpQuotes(TypoScriptFrontendController $parentObject)
{
$parentObject->content = DO_YOUR_THING_HERE
}
There also is another possibility which could replace any strings in the whole page - as it operates on the rendered page (and not only on single fields).
You even can use regular expressions.

Typo3 Extension PHP View

Using the infos in this link:
https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/ExtbaseFluidBook/8-Fluid/9-using-php-based-views.html
I try to create an action to output a JSON.
I have a normal controller with the list action:
public function listAction()
{
$storelocators = $this->storelocatorRepository->findAll();
$this->view->assign('storelocators', $storelocators);
}
And in ext/my_storelocator/Classes/View/Storelocator I have a class List.php:
<?
class Tx_MyStorelocator_View_Storelocator_List extends Tx_Extbase_MVC_View_AbstractView {
public function render() {
return 'Hello World';
}
}
All I get is:
Sorry, the requested view was not found.
The technical reason is: No template was found. View could not be resolved for action "list" in class "My\MyStorelocator\Controller\StorelocatorController".
So I guess there is something wrong with the paths. Or where is the Problem?
Edit: Extensioninfos
Vendor: My
key: my_storelocator
controller: NOT SURE (I created it with the extension_builder so I guess my controllers name is Storelocator)
action: list
From my understanding a classname like Tx_MyStorelocator_View_Storelocator_List should be correct. But its not working
You will need to create an empty file for the HTML view for your controller, e.g. Resources/Private/Template/Storelocator/List.html, even if you do not plan to use the HTML view or if you just return the content yourself (which is perfectly fine).
The reason for this is simply technical limitation.
First of all, TYPO3 now has a built-in JSON view, described thoroughly here: https://usetypo3.com/json-view.html. It lets you easily define which properties you'd like to render.
The error message means that your Controller is still pointing to the TemplateView - because thats the error the TemplateView throws if it can't find the defined template file.
You can specify which view to use to render within your controller. You can either set a default view via the $defaultViewObjectName property, like so:
/**
* #var string
*/
protected $defaultViewObjectName = '\TYPO3\CMS\Fluid\View\TemplateView';
You can also set it from within the Controller inside initialization actions like so:
public function initializeExportPDFAction(){
$this->defaultViewObjectName = 'Vendor\Extension\View\FileTransferView';
}
(I have, however, not yet found a way to define the template from within actions, any tips in the comments would be appreciated)
Your path syntax is probably out of date. Instead of writing a render() function in Classes/View/Storelocator/List.php, try writing a listAction() function in a Classes/Controller/StorelocatorController.php file. Extension Builder should have created this file for you, if you made an aggregate model with the usual "list, create, edit ..." and such actions.
Review A journey through the Blog Example and the following chapter, Creating a first extension, for tips.
Keep in mind that there is a mismatch between the documentation and the Extension Builder generated PHP code files. Developing TYPO3 Extensions with Extbase and Fluid has some parts up to date, and other parts still using old syntax.

How to get user's input from WicketStuff's TinyMCE

Pretty straight-forward question, but I can't find this anywhere. I'm using WicketStuff's TinyMCE to make a Rich Text Editor in my application, and can't find anywhere how to get the input from the text area. For brevity's sake, the following is a simplified version of the code I'm using.
private String input;
...
TinyMCESettings settings = new TinyMCESettings(TinyMCESettings.Theme.simple);
TextArea<String> textArea = new TextArea<String>("editor", new PropertyModel<String>(this, "input"));
textArea.add(new TinyMceBehavior(settings));
form.add(textArea);
Using this, I would expect the usual manner to simply use my String 'input' since it's set as the model. This always results in null as the model isn't being updated.
I tried using the auto-save plugin in case it was expecting the save button to be clicked (which doesn't update the model either), and neither worked. The only thing I've been able to do to get the user's input is to add a HiddenField, with a new model, and make a JavaScript call like
document.getElementById('hiddenField').value = tinyMCE.get('editor').getContent();
but this has led to other problems with trying to call the JS in the desired place and to get it to work properly. I feel this shouldn't be necessary anyways, as surely someone must have implemented a method to get the contents of the text area being used.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks to a blog post at Nevermind Solutions, the way to get the model updated is to add the following JavaScript to the form's submitting button:
onclick="tinyMCE.triggerSave(true,true);"
My text area is inside a panel with the button outside of the panel, so it doesn't directly work for me. The trick was to add the JavaScript call to the button's onSubmit, move the logic into the onAfterSubmit, and to make the button MultiPart so that it could call the save trigger before doing the other logic associated to the model.
Hope this might help some others in the future.
You have to add a modifier to the submit button so that the model can update.
AjaxButton btnSubmit = new AjaxButton("btnSubmit", new Model()) {
#Override
public void onSubmit(AjaxRequestTarget target, Form<?> form) {
doSomething();
}
};
btnSubmit.add(new TinyMceAjaxSubmitModifier());

How do i add a custom made TinyMCE form element to my Zend Project?

I have been working with Zend for a few months now and am at a stage where i'd like to add some fields to my form using TinyMce. What i want to achieve is to be able to just create a form extending Zend_form and just be able to say
$element = new TinyMce_Form_Element_Editor('element');
But i just do not have a single clue on how to achieve this. I have of course been looking around before asking this question and most sources just point me towards this site.
Wich seems to be aimed at people with alot of experiance with Zend. 2 months in it's not a big surprise i am not at the level this might have been intended for as i have tried following the instrucutions given and creating the file setup as shown by in the svn repositiry create by the writer of this article.
Aside from heading from one error into another i also do not uderstand what the code is doing exactly, i just have a vague guess at best when i run trough it.
Is there any kind of easy to follow simple tutorial explaining how to enable tinymce in a Zend Form?
Any advice or tips on how to achieve my goal will be well appreciated
Not best solution but you may find it useful:
class My_Form_Element_Tinymce extends Zend_Form_Element_Textarea
{
/**
* Element CSS class name
* #var string
*/
protected $class = 'tinyMCE';
public function init()
{
$this->getView()->headScript()->appendFile('path/to/tinymce.js');
$this->getView()->headScript()->appendFile('path/to/tinymce_config.js');
}
}
and in your tinymce_config.js add selector for tinyMCE class name
tinymce_config.js is your tinyMCE configuration file if you never used tinyMCE goto http://tinymce.com and you will find many examples with what you need.

How to remove a validator from a Select?

I have a form where I need to add/remove validators dynamically. Based on a dropdown selection, other form fields may have different validation rules.
For other kinds of inputs, I've used replace(methodThatCreatesTheInput()) to get rid of a previously added validator. (Not knowing of a better way. Specifically, there doesn't seem to be any way to directly remove a validator from a component...)
With Select, from wicket-extensions, this approach fails with something like:
WicketMessage: submitted http post value [[Ljava.lang.String;#5b4bf56d]
for SelectOption component [8:myForm:targetInput] contains an
illegal relative path element [targetConsortiums:1:option] which does not
point to an SelectOption component. Due to this the Select component cannot
resolve the selected SelectOption component pointed to by the illegal value.
A possible reason is that component hierarchy changed between rendering and
form submission.
The method that creates the Select:
private FormComponent<?> targetSelection() {
Map<Class<? extends Target>, List<Target>> targets = targetService.getAllAsMap();
SelectOptions<Target> propertyOptions = new SelectOptions<Target>("targetConsortiums",
targets.get(Consortium.class), new TargetRenderer());
SelectOptions<Target> consortiumOptions = new SelectOptions<Target>("targetProperties",
targets.get(Property.class), new TargetRenderer());
Select select = new Select(ID_TARGET, new PropertyModel<Target>(model, "target"));
select.add(propertyOptions);
select.add(consortiumOptions);
select.setRequired(true);
select.setMarkupId(ID_TARGET);
return select;
}
(Why use a Select instead of normal DropDownChoice? We want the two types of choices to be clearly separated, as documented in this question.)
Any ideas how to solve this? What I'm trying to achieve is, of course, very simple. Unfortunately Wicket disagrees, or I'm using it wrong.
Wicket 1.4.
I don't know how to do this on Wicket 1.4, but on Wicket 1.5 there is a remove method for validators on FormComponent (see javadoc)
