Default element value using Zend_Form with Zend_Config_Ini - zend-framework

Question

I have been looking for hours and I can't find any documentation anywhere as to how you set the default value of an element using Zend_Config_Ini as the initialisation to a Zend_Form.
I've seen the documentation for how you do it in normal PHP code...
$validators = array(
'month' => array(
'digits',
'default' => '1'
)
);
// no value for 'month' field
$data = array();
$input = new Zend_Filter_Input(null, $validators, $data);
echo $input->month; // echoes 1
But there's no documentation as to how you set it in an .ini file. I've tried everything (obviously not, but it seems so)!!
Does anyone know the "syntax"?
query.elements.rows.type = "text"
query.elements.rows.options.required = true
query.elements.rows.options.validators.rows.validator = "digits"
query.elements.rows.default = 0 # DOESN'T WORK!
If the "rows" value provided isn't of "digits" then I want it set to "0".
Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

query.elements.rows.type = "text"
query.elements.rows.options.required = true
query.elements.rows.options.validators.rows.validator = "digits"
query.elements.rows.options.value = 0 # This works ;)
If the "rows" value provided isn't of "digits" then I want it set to "0".
This is not achievable by default options. Try the following code:
if( !$form->isValid( $_POST ) ) {
$errorsMessages = $form->getMessages();
if(isset($errorsMessages['rows']['notDigits'])){
$form->getElement( 'rows' )->setValue( '0' ) ;
}
}
