i am trying to create a Radio button using Cakephp like the one the result should resemble like
<div data-attr="radio" id="1">
<label id="label1">Untitled1</label><br/>
<input type="radio" value="option1" id="Radio11" name="Workexperience"/>
<label for="Radio11">Option1</label>
<input type="radio" value="option2" id="Radio12" name="Workexperience"/>
<label for="Radio12">Option2</label>
</div>
how to generate so using Form helper..
Please suggest me..
This might help,
http://book.cakephp.org/view/189/Automagic-Form-Elements#options-before-options-between-options-separator-a-191
For radio type input the 'separator' attribute can be used to inject markup to separate each input/label pair.
Code View
<?php echo $form->input('field', array(
'before' => '--before--',
'after' => '--after--',
'between' => '--between---',
'separator' => '--separator--',
'options' => array('1', '2'),
'type' => 'radio'
));?>
Output:
<div class="input">
--before--
<input name="data[User][field]" type="radio" value="1" id="UserField1" />
<label for="UserField1">1</label>
--separator--
<input name="data[User][field]" type="radio" value="2" id="UserField2" />
<label for="UserField2">2</label>
--between---
--after--
</div>
Looks like $form->radio() should do what you need. I don't know if it will look exactly like your example.

I've read CakePHP multiple checkbox array HTML the right way but getting strange results. I have a list of tags (from a Model called Tag). I want to loop through these and output checkboxes for them in a View.
So I have obtained the Tag data in my Controller with:
$tags = $this->Tag->find('list', ['order' => ['name' => 'ASC']]);
$this->set('tags',$tags);
When I loop through it in my View I am trying to output the checkboxes in between Bootstrap markup:
<?php echo $this->Form->create('GroupTag'); ?>
<?php foreach ($tags as $tag_id => $tag): ?>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<?php echo $this->Form->checkbox('tag_id[]', array( 'value'=> $tag_id)); ?>
<?php echo $tag; ?>
</label>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
I copied the syntax for tag_id[] from the post I linked to.
But when I inspect the markup it's producing the following as the name attribute for each <input type="checkbox">:
data[GroupTag][tag_id[]]
Should this not be
data[GroupTag][tag_id][]
?
The idea is that I have multiple checkboxes with a name attribute tag_id[] and then in the Controller I can loop through what has been checked.
Please can someone advise on this as I can't get it working and have looked into examples provided on here/docs.
Try this
$this->Form->checkbox('tag_id.', array( 'value'=> $tag_id))
You can also do this:
$this->Form->input('GroupTag.tag_id', [
'type' => 'select',
'multiple' => 'checkbox',
'options' => $tag_id
]);
FormHelper::select(string $fieldName, array $options, array $attributes)
Example:
$options = array(
'Value 1' => 'Label 1',
'Value 2' => 'Label 2'
);
echo $this->Form->select('Model.field', $options, array(
'multiple' => 'checkbox'
));
Output:
<div class="input select">
<label for="ModelField">Field</label>
<input name="data[Model][field]" value="" id="ModelField"
type="hidden">
<div class="checkbox">
<input name="data[Model][field][]" value="Value 1"
id="ModelField1" type="checkbox">
<label for="ModelField1">Label 1</label>
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<input name="data[Model][field][]" value="Value 2"
id="ModelField2" type="checkbox">
<label for="ModelField2">Label 2</label>
</div>
</div>
I'm trying to use setTemplates() multiple times in a view, but it doesn't work as expected.
I have two templates which I want to set when I need them.
$bootstrapTemplate = [
'inputContainer' => '<div class="form-group {{type}}{{required}}">{{content}}</div>',
];
$bootstrapTemplateInputGroup = [
'inputContainer' => '<div class="form-group {{type}}{{required}}">{{content}}</div>',
'input' => '<div class="input-group"><div class="input-group-addon">€</div><input type="{{type}}" name="{{name}}"{{attrs}}/></div>'
];
I start to set the templates like this
$this->Form->setTemplates($bootstrapTemplate);
$this->Form->control('title', ['class' => 'form-control', 'label' => __('Titel')]);
// OUTPUT - correct
// <div class="form-group text required"><label for="title">Titel</label><input type="text" name="title" class="form-control" required="required" maxlength="255" id="title"></div>
$this->Form->setTemplates($bootstrapTemplateInputGroup);
echo $this->Form->control('price', ['class' => 'form-control', 'id' => 'price_eur', 'label' => __('Preis EUR')]).'</div>';
// OUTPUT - correct
<div class="form-group number required"><label for="price_eur">Preis EUR</label><div class="input-group"><div class="input-group-addon">€</div><input type="number" name="price" class="form-control" id="price_eur" required="required" step="any"></div></div>
Now I want to switch back to $bootstrapTemplate which doesn't seem to work. Instead the $bootstrapTemplateInputGroup is used
$this->Form->setTemplates($bootstrapTemplate);
echo $this->Form->control('user_zip', ['class' => 'form-control', 'id' => 'user_zip', 'label' => __('PLZ')])
// OUTPUT - wrong
<div class="form-group text"><label for="user_zip">PLZ</label><div class="input-group"><div class="input-group-addon">€</div><input type="text" name="user_zip" class="form-control" id="user_zip"></div></div>
My expected output is the template of $bootstrapTemplate like:
<div class="form-group text required"><label for="user_zip">PLZ</label><input type="text" name="user_zip" class="form-control" required="required" maxlength="255" id="user_zip"></div>
What am I doing wrong here?
FormHelper::setTemplates() doesn't overwrite the complete existing set of templates, it merges it with the given templates, ie the input template set with the second call, will remain changed.
You either have to push() to (store) and pop() from (restore) the template stack using the underlying templater to avoid that:
$this->Form->templater()->push();
$this->Form->templater()->add($bootstrapTemplateInputGroup);
$this->Form->templater()->pop();
or use the FormHelper::create() method's templates option to apply the templates to the specific FormHelper::control() call(s) only:
echo $this->Form->control('title', ['templates' => $bootstrapTemplate, /*...*/]);
echo $this->Form->control('price', ['templates' => $bootstrapTemplateInputGroup, /*...*/]);
echo $this->Form->control('user_zip', ['templates' => $bootstrapTemplate, /*...*/]);

I have a column in my table named 'availability_option' with type enum('0', '1', '2'). Zero means 'Fixed Price', One means 'Auction', Two means 'Both'.
I want to generate 2 checkboxes dynamically One for Fixed Price and another 'Auction'.
How is it possible?
I didi it static.
But it should not be the right syntax of yii.
<input value="0" id="fixedprice" type="checkbox" name="ProductShop[availability_option][]">
<label for="fixedprice">Fixed Price</label>
<input value="1" id="auctionprice" type="checkbox" name="ProductShop[availability_option][]">
<label for="auctionprice">Auction</label>
I want it dynamically, So how is it possible?Any idea?
Use checkboxList():
<?= $form->field($model, 'attribute_name')->inline(true)->checkboxList([0 => 'Fixed Price', 1 => 'Auction']) ?>

I was facing The same problem and I solved It by doing like this :
<?php echo $form->field($model, 'name[]')->checkboxList(['a' => 'Item A', 'b' => 'Item B', 'c' => 'Item C']); ?>
Note that the checkboxList expects the first argument of the passed array to be of string type as well so you may need to make changes to your array.
Generated HTML will be as:
<label><input type="checkbox" name="fomrmName[name][]" value="'1'"> a</label>
another way by which I solved My problem was to wrap the checkbox in foreach block like following:
<?php foreach($vendorsData as $value){?>
<li><?= $form->field($ucVendors, 'vendor_id['.$value.']')->checkbox(array('label'=>$value)); ?>
and the Generated html is as:
<label><input type="checkbox" id="usedcarvendors-vendor_id-value" name="UsedCarVendors[vendor_id][value]" value="1"> value</label>

CakePHP usually place labels before the input, so doing this:
echo $this->Form->input('subject');
We obtain this:
<div class="input text required">
<label for="TicketSubject">Subject</label>
<input name="data[Ticket][subject]" maxlength="255" type="text" id="TicketSubject">
</div>
Is there any way to place the label after the input to obtain this?
<div class="input text required">
<input name="data[Ticket][subject]" maxlength="255" type="text" id="TicketSubject">
<label for="TicketSubject">Subject</label>
</div>
Thanks.
The proper way is using the the 'format' option.
$this->Form->input('subject', array(
'format' => array('before', 'input', 'between', 'label', 'after', 'error')
));
Didn't anyone read the API :)
You can try this:
echo $this->Form->input('subject', array('label' => false, 'after' => $this->Form->label('Subject:')));
You can do like this also -
echo $this->Form->input('subject', array('label' => false, 'after' => '<label for="subject">Subject</label>'));
I am trying to get the data from the form I created where I used an array to name them like:
<input type="text" name="fname[]" />
<input type="text" name="mname[]" />
<input type="text" name="lname[]" />
where the said form field are dynamically inserted or removed in the page.
On my script to get the values of the forms, I wrote something like:
$student = array(
'fname' => '$_POST[fname]',
'mname' => '$_POST[mname]',
'lname' => '$_POST[lname]',
);
But when I used var_dump to see the values, each field will be indexed from zero and if it has repeating fields, it would be again be declared as another array inside an array.
What I wanted to do is to have an array with this stucture:
$student = array(
array(
'fname' => 'fname1',
'mname' => 'mname1',
'lname' => 'lname1'
),
array(
'fname' => 'fname2',
'mname' => 'mname3',
'lname' => 'lname2'
)
);
I tried using a loop but I just fail again and again. Can anyone help me solve this problem?
Thank you in advance for your help.
<input type="text" name="student[]['fname']" />
<input type="text" name="student[]['mname']" />
<input type="text" name="student[]['lname']" />
no loops necessary. Your $_POST['student'] variable will automatically be the array you wanted to achieve.
EDIT: this isn't achieving the desired result. It's incrementing student for each field. adding an n value to the first set of brackets like student[n][fname] does achieve the desired result. I don't know how the script is written to dynamically generate these three fields on the fly, but if you can figure out how to add an n value you're golden.
<?php
for($i=0; $i<count($_POST['fname']); $i++) {
$student[] = array(
'fname' => $_POST['fname'][$i],
'mname' => $_POST['mname'][$i],
'lname' => $_POST['lname'][$i],
);
}
?>
Oops, I thought Stephan's answer would suffice, but rather, it should be the following I believe (can't test right now). Try it:
<input type="text" name="student[0]['fname']" />
<input type="text" name="student[0]['mname']" />
<input type="text" name="student[0]['lname']" />
<input type="text" name="student[1]['fname']" />
<input type="text" name="student[1]['mname']" />
<input type="text" name="student[1]['lname']" />
etc...
(note the added numeric indexes)
Then when you do a echo '<pre>' . print_r( $_POST[ 'student' ], true ); you should see the structure you are looking for.
