Qooxdoo: how to make a form validation on a complex form? - forms

I have this form:
https://github.com/totty90/production01_server/blob/master/node_modules/production/client/production/source/class/production/views/insertWorkAsManager/Index.js
https://github.com/totty90/production01_server/tree/master/node_modules/production/client/production/source/class/production/views/insertWorkAsManager
It's not exactly a simple form not even a form yet. It's just a bunch of widgets, but I would like to take advance of the validations on the various fields. How do you suggest to do? As I cant directly apply the Form example in my "form".
Thanks,

qooxdoo supports validation for items in the from and the from in total. This offers the opportunity to validate everything you want. Either you check on a single field basis or on a combination. Check out the following demo which showcases most of the features:

Advanced conditional logic - Gravity Forms Wordpress plugin

I had a question as to the best way to hook some specific functionality into my Gravity Form.
I have a situation where I want to show a different set of dropdown options based on several different possible ranges of postcodes entered into a field.
One way I've tried to achieve this was with Conditional Statements, but the only problem I'm encountering there is that there are quite broad ranges for the postcodes that aren't super easy to work with, plus a few exceptions.
e.g.
New South Wales post codes can be:
1000, 1999,
2000, 2599,
2619, 2898,
2921, 2999
I could code this as a PHP function to validate and return a state, is there a way to hook that into the functions.php file? Or is there a better way to handle this?
Thanks!
Alright, I managed to come up with a solution for this by using a hidden select field as my conditional and then using on page javascript to check for entries to the postcode field and update the hidden conditional field manually.

Generate dynamic forms that change based on form input in jSF

I need to create a form that takes some data from the server and generate a form based on the type of the data. For example, if I have a String, I need the form to have an input box. If I have a List, I need the corresponding form field to have a group of checkboxes. Is there anyway to create this type of auto-generating form?
I have been playing with data tables, and I can figure out how to generate a table that dynamically changes. But I can't find a way to generate a form that dynamically changes. I can probably figure out a way to create this in javascript/jquery, but is there a way using JSF/PrimeFaces/RichFaces?
This feature might interest you, it's a primefaces extension that handles creation of dynamic forms (on runtime). The form receives fields (or controls) by wish from a bean and adds them.
It's called DynaForm ; hope that helps your cause.
You can take advantage of the rendered attribute, doing something like this:
<h:inputText rendered="#{bean.doIHaveAString}" />
<h:selectManyCheckbox rendered="#{bean.doIHaveAList}" />
those elements will only appear if the condition is met

Interactive PDF Form Validation

I'm hoping someone can help me with a challenge I am unable to find a solution for. I need to create an interactive form within a PDF document. One of the main issues is that I have 3 fields where I require an Integer input from the user. After all 3 fields are filled out, I need to ensure that the result is equal to 100%. Is this something that is even possible?
I hope my question makes sense. On a general level, I suppose I need to know whether I can apply programmatic validation to a PDF Form Field, and be able to determine the value of other fields within that same PDF document.
Thank you kindly in advance!
You can use JavaScript for Acrobat in order to achieve this.

What are some practical reasons to use Zend_Form_Subform other than for multi-page forms?

I've read the ZF docs regarding subforms, and other than for multi-page form purposes, I'm not sure if I should use zend_form_subform or just have one bigger subform to incorporate all the elements of my form. Let's say I have a form to create a user object and that there are a few different fieldsets, such as contact information, personal information, and account options. Is this a good candidate for subforms? Or would I be overcomplicating things?
Subforms are great for repeating a block of elements, for instance a set of invoice lines, or a customers' shipping and invoicing address.
They also come in handy for multipage forms, in which each page shows a single subform. You can also use it to logically group a number of elements by what they represent. It can make it a lot easier to just extract parts of the form values (for instance only the contact info).
In short; if your form becomes large or complex, it is definitely a good idea to separate it into subforms.
The key argument--and for me only argument--for subforms is validation. You can validate subforms individually and finally the whole form.
If you have similar elements you can easily create a function inside your form class returning an element with preset settings or even create your own element class. If you want to group elements you can do the same, i.e create function or class, but instead you return a displayGroup because that creates the fieldset which you want to present it with in HTML.

Validation Attribute - checking a dynamic number of fields on a form ASP.NET MVC 2

I have a number of forms with checkboxes that need validating. For example I might have a form with 3 checkboxes and one of those 3 needs ticking and another form with 50 boxes that might need at least one item checking.
Does anyone have a ValidationAttribute that would work under these circumstances.
Many thanks for any pointers.
You can do that with class-level validation attributes (as opposed to property-level attributes). I've written a blog article describing how to implement this on both the server and the client side if you want to make this really ajaxy... :-)
