German umlauts not showing in Zend Form - zend-framework

I've been facing a problem with Zend Form, for some reason words that have german special characters do not show in the dropbox.
for the form I'm using this partial code:
$country_to = new Zend_Form_Element_Select('country_to');
$country_to->setLabel('Traveling To (Country)')
->addMultiOptions($this->country_list);
And I'm getting it from the DB like this:
protected $country_list = array();
protected function getCountryValues()
{
$mapper = new Application_Model_Mapper_Resource();
$resources = $mapper->fetchAllCountries();
$this->country_list[''] = '';
foreach($resources as $resource){
$this->country_list[$resource->getName()] = $resource->getName();
}
}
and the result I'm getting is this:
I dumped the country_list and it actually contains all data but it's not showing in the form!

I found the solution, it was pretty simple. I need to disable the default escaping by zend.
I simply added this to the beginning of the form and it worked:
$this->getView()->setEscape('stripslashes');

Add formhandler field data to subject

My goal is to have the Formhandler log UID inside the Admin emails subject.
Inside of my email template I'm using
###value_tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid### to insert a unique id.
I need to get this value into my Admin emails subject. E.g.
"Order ID: ###value_tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid###"
I've read various forum posts, each do something different and I ended up with this snippet:
plugin.Tx_Formhandler.settings.predef.form {
# TEMPLATE MARKERS
name = Form1
templateFile = typo3template/typo3/ext/formhandler/form1/default.html
markers {
name = TEXT
name.value = Form1
}
finishers {
1.config {
class = Tx_Formhandler_Finisher_Mail
subject = TEXT
subject.value = ###GP:tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid###
}
}
[...]
which just yields "{$formhandler.admin.subject}" as the subject.
I also tried other variations like
###LLL:tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid### or tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid
The backend field "subject" is empty.
Pasting the HTML placeholder into the backend field didn't work either.
I can't get this to work.
In what way can you access the id you want to insert?
From the notation GP:tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid I would assume a GET/POST value.
For using this value in typoscript you need to do it like this (or similar: dataWrap):
subject = TEXT
subject.data = GP:tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid
subject.noTrimWrap = |Order ID: ||
The notation LLL:tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid would be a language specific text (you would also insert by .data) but it would be a static text for each language.
After a lot of trial and error, I got it working.
First of all, I forgot to specify that I want to configure the admin mail.
Adding admin { fixed the problem of getting only {$formhandler.admin.subject}.
The UID value itself can be accessed with GP:formhandler|tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid
I combined that with the noTrimWrap as suggested by #bernd-wilke-πφ
The final snippet looks like this:
finishers {
1 {
class = Tx_Formhandler_Finisher_Mail
config {
admin {
subject = TEXT
subject.data = GP:formhandler|tx_formhandler_log_inserted_uid
subject.noTrimWrap = |Order number: ||
}
}
}
}

Set values to form builds by zend framework

I use Zend framework to build the forms, I want to make the edit action, since the user click on edit, the form appears with users data, how can I set the data to the form which is built dynamically??
$form->populate($data);
where $data is an array of key value pairs containing your data.
$form = new Zend_Form;
if ($this->_request->isPost()) {
//to just populate
$form->populate($this->_getAllParams());
//or auto populate during validation
if ($form->isValid($this->_getAllParams()) {
//do stuff if valid
}
}
I know that ZF maunal is pretty messy and not everything is clear, but I think forms are explained pretty nice (with examples). You should research more by yourself.
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.form.html
$Menu = new Admin_Model_DbTable_Menu();
$row = $Menu->fetchRow($Menu->select()->where('id = ?', $id));
$Addmenu = new Admin_Form_Addmenu();
$Addmenu->populate($row->toArray());

Trying to copy values into multiple embedded forms

I have a Symfony 1.4 application to allow users to enter data to a electrical appliance testing database. The page in questions consists of multiple embedded "new" forms so the user can submit many tests in one go. The form validates and saves correctly, but feedback is that it will be tedious to use.
As much of the data may be the same in each test (e.g. same date, same result, same person doing the testing), I would like the user to be able to fill in values in the top row, then click a button to fill the same information in the rows below. I'm pretty sure this would require javascript, but I don't have much experience.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Many Thanks.
Well, I managed to figure it out without using javascript.
I put a button on the page
<input type="submit" name="copy_values" value="duplicate">
In the action for the page I included the code...
elseif (isset($_POST['copy_values'])) {
// get values from first embedded test
$newTests = $testList['new_tests'];
$testDate = $newTests[0]['et_date_tested'];
$testedBy = $newTests[0]['et_tester_id'];
$formOptions = array('test_date'=>$testDate, 'tester'=>$testedBy);
$this->form = new MultiTestForm(null, $formOptions);
}
$this->setTemplate('multiAdd');
... which takes the values from the widgets in the top row of the form and creates an array. This is passed as the options array to create a new form.
In the top level form class..
public function configure()
{
...
$subform = new sfForm();
for($i = 0;$i < sfConfig::get('app_new_test_rows'); $i ++)
{
$formToAdd = new TestsForMultiAddForm(null,$this->getOptions());
$subform->embedForm($i, $formToAdd);
}
$this->embedForm('new_tests', $subform);
}
...and in the embedded form class...
public function configure()
{
...
if ($this->getOption('test_date')) {
$this->setDefault('et_date_tested', $this->getOption('test_date'));
}
if ($this->getOption('tester')) {
$this->setDefault('et_tester_id', $this->getOption('tester'));
}
...
}
Not sure if this is the conventional way to approach the problem, but it works!

How to add two numbers in sugar crm

I made module addition and in this made three fields amount1_c, amount2_c and total_amount_c to add the two numbers and display the result in the third field. I done coding in the logic looks here is my code
<?
$hook_version = 1;
$hook_array = Array();
$hook_array['before_save'] = Array();
$hook_array['before_save'][] = Array(1,'calculate_field', 'custom/modules/cases/LogicHookMath.php','LogicHookMath', 'calculate_field');
?>
and made one more file logic hook math. here is my code for
<?php
class LogicHookMath {
function calculate_field(&$bean, $event, $arguments) {
$field1 = $bean->amount1_c;
$field2 = $bean->amount2_c;
$field3 = $field1 + $field2;
$bean->amount_total_c = $field3;
}
}
?>
but still i did not get any result. Please help me out for this.
The code looks correct.
Some common "mistakes" when custom logic hooks are not working:
Make sure, the custom logic hook has the correct name (LogicHookMath.php)
Make sure, that the $bean variable is prefixed with &, so the variable is passed as a reference
Make sure the logic_hooks.php and the LogicHookMath.php files are readable by the web server user
The entire custom directory should also be writeable for the web server user
If the above does not help, try logging the progress to the sugarcrm.log using $GLOBALS['log']->info( "Value 3: ". $field3); in the custom logic hook.

zend framework 1.11.5 is choking on search function - mysql db

ZF 1.11.5 is puking all over this search function. i've tried creating the query several different ways, sent the sql statement to my view, copied and pasted the sql statement into phpMyAdmin and successfully retrieved records using the sql that ZF is choking on. i have been getting a coupld of different errors: 1) an odd SQL error about 'ordinality' (from my Googling ... it seems this is a ZF hang up .. maybe?) and 2) Fatal error: Call to undefined method Application_Model_DbTable_Blah::query() in /blah/blah/blah.php on line blah
public function searchAction($page=1)
{
$searchForm = new Application_Model_FormIndexSearch();
$this->view->searchForm = $searchForm;
$this->view->postValid = '<p>Enter keywords to search the course listings</p>';
$searchTerm = trim( $this->_request->getPost('keywords') );
$searchDb = new Application_Model_DbTable_Ceres();
$selectSql = "SELECT * FROM listings WHERE `s_coursedesc` LIKE '%".$searchTerm."%' || `s_title` LIKE '%".$searchTerm."%'";
$selectQuery = $searchDb->query($selectSql);
$searchResults = $selectQuery->fetchAll();
}
here's my model ....
class Application_Model_DbTable_Ceres extends Zend_Db_Table_Abstract
{
protected $_name = 'listings';
function getCourse( $courseId )
{
$courseid = (int)$courseId;
$row = $this->fetchRow('id=?',$courseId);
if (!$row)
throw new Exception('That course id was not found');
return $row->toArray();
}
}
never mind the view file ... that never throws an error. on a side note: i'm seriously considering kicking ZF to the curb and using CodeIgniter instead.
looking forward to reading your thoughts. thanks ( in advance ) for your responses
You're trying to all a method called query() on Zend_Db_Table but no such method exists. Since you have built the SQL already you might find it easier to call the query on the DB adapter directly, so:
$selectSql = "SELECT * FROM listings WHERE `s_coursedesc` LIKE '%".$searchTerm."%' || `s_title` LIKE '%".$searchTerm."%'";
$searchResults = $selectQuery->getAdapter()->fetchAll($selectSql);
but note that this will give you arrays of data in the result instead of objects which you might be expecting. You also need to escape $searchTerm here since you are getting that value directly from POST data.
Alternatively, you could form the query programatically, something like:
$searchTerm = '%'.$searchTerm.'%';
$select = $selectQuery->select();
$select->where('s_coursedesc LIKE ?', $searchTerm)
->orWhere('s_title LIKE ?', $searchTerm);
$searchResults = $searchQuery->fetchAll($select);
