Re: QFC validation

Hi! Daniel Kopp wrote:

Well, yes. If the action is bound to the submit button (unlike 'display' or 'process') then its handler has to save the values in container and (probably) perform the validation.

So - how do I validate the form? Can I still use default validation which is defined in the Form (addRule)? If yes - how? If I cannot use the validation from the form I would prefer to use the way I suggested (of course with a global variables).

This is described in the docs. You add addRule() calls to buildForm() method and later call validate().

I don't get you here. You can name the actions any way you want, as for what class to extend, there is no real use in extending Action_Submit if you are going to rewrite its perform() method.

That means usually if I use the Action_Submit class I don't need to change it at all but just put the thing that I want to do in the Action connected to "process"? The only difference between the Action-class and the Action/Submit-class is found in the perform-function?

If you need custom action on submit, then you need to define custom action handler. If Action_Submit was enough for you I presume you wouldn't start this thread.
