I have a Navigation Form in which the first button is defaulted to show a blank form (Request form) where users will enter information.
There's an option on this Request form that if there are multiple requests under this request, `a box is checked and another form opens and the request number from the Request form is defaulted into the multiple request form's request number field (this is the link).
On the Multiple Request window's ID field in Property Sheet/Data/Default Value I have =[Forms]![frmRequests]![RequestID]
With the Request form open on its own, this works great, but within the Navigation form it doesn't. Is there another layer that I need to add so the default value works in either format? I will be using it in the Navigation form primarily.
The following worked for me.
=Forms!NavigationFormName.NavigationSubformName.Form!RequestID

I am using angular-schema-form, and ran into a problem that when I load a schema and a form from a server using REST, the validation sometimes did not kick in. I could post a schema even though some fields were required.
How can I always be sure that the required fields in the form has to be filled in by the user before posting?
I found that using $scope.$broadcast('schemaFormValidate'); before submitting the form works (from the docs).
$scope.onSubmit = function(form) {
// First we broadcast an event so all fields validate themselves
$scope.$broadcast('schemaFormValidate');
// Then we check if the form is valid
if (form.$valid) {
// ... do whatever you need to do with your data.
}
}
However, we can not disable any buttons beforehand.
#John you can set a value in your model that is part of a display condition. That allows you to hide the buttons on submit and then re-enable them when you are ready for the user to submit the form again for any reason.
I have form split in two tabs and submit button is present on the second tab.Elements in both the tabs are present enclosed within same form tag and share same "ng-controller".Problem is I can submit the form without filling form elements in the first tab and it shows error scope object is undefined.How do I validate the form elements in this case and save the scope data on pressing submit.Any suggestions would be of great help.
With regards to your validation problem, you'll want to validate that each required field has been filled-out correctly before acting on the submit. What I would do: instead of the submit button directly calling the submit functionality, it would call a function that checks for all the necessary values on the scope, and if it works, then it calls the submit function.
With regards to saving the data, you'll either want to save it to a db or store it temporarily in a service.This is a pretty good tutorial on services: http://viralpatel.net/blogs/angularjs-service-factory-tutorial/
I have set a search page and it's working properly, But when i click on back in browser then the problem(mention below) appears, So how can i can i disable this.
Confirm Form Resubmission
This webpage requires data that you entered earlier in order to be properly displayed. You can send this data again, but by doing so you will repeat any action this page previously performed. Press Reload to resend that data and display this page.
After processing POST on your page
example.com/mypage.php
use
header('Location: example.com/mypage.php');
In this way the post will not be resubmitted and you wont get the alert from browser.
Use the command line option -disable-prompt-on-repost for Chrome.
I'm creating a web client that works with a settings web API with angular.
There are a lot of settings and they are all optional. If I send a setting, it should be saved. Settings that are not sent should not change.
The requirement is to have one Save Changes button for all the settings.
I wonder if there is some way in Angular to implement this.
I thought about not using HTML form and collecting the data and creating an ajax request by myself but then I will lose the validation mechanism (that is working well with Angular-UI validate).
I thought about splitting the form into little forms and submiting only the forms where ng-dirty is not false, but this can cause a partial save if some requests will fail (and this is against the requirement).
Any idea?
You can check if the form or any named field is modified before submission. If the form has a name and your inputs have names like:
<form name="myForm">
<input name="input1">
</form>
In the controller you will have access to the object $scope.myForm and $scope.myForm.input1, and these objects will have a $dirty property which is true if the original value was modified by the user.
In the Angular documentation there is an example that covers ng-copy to implement a reset function.
http://docs.angularjs.org/cookbook/advancedform
During submit you could compare your starting model(master copy) to the changed/submitted object (changed copy) and only submit the changed items (or just delete those that are the same/unchanged).
Diff the copy and master with

This needs extra work to handle arrays.
Or convert to JSON and diff the JSON

I am going to implement paypal in cake php. I have two conditions to post the form.
Fist posts the form to paypal, if user click on paypal button. Then form shoud be posted at paypal url at : https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr .
If user click on submit button form should be posted to it controller.
It means i want to create two forms at a single page and want to posts at different places in certain conditions.
If I am giving custom action in form, it is adding app name+controller name before the url. like: appname/controllername/http://google.com. but want only http://google.com .I want to remove appname/controllername from the url.
How do I do this? Thanks in advance.
In your form creation call, you need to specify the URL
echo $this->Form->create('Model', array('url' => 'http://google.com'));
