RE: [PEAR] Quickform Builder + Smarty

ok, Justin help me out of this one and you got something good coming from your list.. I am still trying to get theses radio button groups in.. I have in my table class:: function preGenerateForm(&$fb) { $this->preDefElements = array(); $this->fb_preDefElements['subject_appears'] = &HTML_QuickForm::createElement('radio', 'subject_appears', 'subject_appears', 'Occupied', 'occupied'); $this->fb_preDefElements['subject_appears'] = &HTML_QuickForm::createElement('radio', 'subject_appears', 'subject_appears', 'Vacant', 'vacant'); } and debug from smarty is returning this:: subject_appears => Array (1) vacant => Array (8) name => subject_appears value => vacant type => radio frozen => required => error => empty label => \t subject_appears\r\n\t \t html => <input name="subject_appears" value="... its just returning the 2nd one.. I am using {$form_data.subject_appears.html} and I get nothing I use {$form_data.subject.appears.vacant.html} and I get the label + the button. so I know I gotta be close. I have tried about everything else that I have seen on the net.. hope you can help me out. Please reply with an example on how to do it & smarty examples. I am using DataObject_Formbuilder (latest stable ) + Smarty. -- Sal -----Original Message----- From: Justin Patrin [mailto:papercrane@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2004 12:06 PM To: Sparacio, Sal Cc: pear-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PEAR] Quickform Builder + Smarty On Tue, 26 Oct 2004 11:53:39 -0500, Sparacio, Sal <salsparacio@newton-associates.com> wrote: > > > Thanks justin you saved my ass, is there a donate button somewhere? :) Not per-se, but I do have a wishlist: http://pear.php.net/wishlist.php/justinpatrin I have items ranging from cheap to super-pricey. ;-) > > Last thing I that i need to work out is how to add rules to the form. $form->addRule(...); http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.html.html-quickform.html-quickform.add rule.php > > -- Sal > > -----Original Message----- > From: Justin Patrin [mailto:papercrane@gmail.com] > Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2004 11:32 AM > To: Sparacio, Sal > Cc: pear-general@lists.php.net > Subject: Re: [PEAR] Quickform Builder + Smarty > > > On Tue, 26 Oct 2004 08:26:29 -0500, Sparacio, Sal > <salsparacio@newton-associates.com> wrote: > > I am on the last steps on this adventure with Dataobjects + Quickform + > > Smarty.
