Hi all,

i have a question about integrating a form into a custom module.
With:
Quote:

$testform = new XoopsSimpleForm('Testform', 'name of form', 'index.php', 'POST');
$testform->addElement(new XoopsFormText("testform", "testformdata", 25, 10, "default"));
$testform->display();

i can show a textbox on the page.
But i can't find any hint how to get the data out of the textbox.
What is the varname, and how do i get it after writing into that Box?

You have to access this data in the variable $_POST['testformdata']

For example look at this code on changepass.php from profile module:

$xoopsUser->setVar('pass', md5($_POST['newpass']));

Thanks 3Ir0n,

changepass.php is a good example for this.

Does somebody have another good tip for me on how to use the XoopsFormSelect Element?

I tried
Quote:

$optionsTitles[] = "Testtitle1";
$optionsTitles[] = "Testtitle2";
$optionsTitles[] = "Testtitle3";
$frmSelTitle = new XoopsThemeForm('Select', 'SelTitle', 'index.php', 'POST');
$frmSelTitle->addElement(new XoopsFormSelect($caption="Select Title", $name="selTitle", $value=null, $size=1, $multiple=false));
$frmSelTitle->addOptionArray($optionsTitles);
$frmSelTitle->display();


but i only get the following error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method XoopsThemeForm::addOptionArray() in ...

i also tried to the same result
Quote:

$optionsTitles = array("1" => "Testtitle1",
"2" => "Testtitle2",
"3" => "Testtitle3")


I don't get it, cause i saw many examples 'quite' similar

addOptionArray is a method of the form element, not of the form.

$optionsTitles = array(
   '1' => 'Testtitle1',
   '2' => 'Testtitle2',
   '3' => 'Testtitle3',
);

$form = new XoopsThemeForm('Select', 'SelTitle', 'index.php', 'post', true);
$menu = new XoopsFormSelect('Select Title', 'selTitle', null, 1, false);
$menu->addOptionArray($optionsTitles);
$form->addElement($menu);
$form->display();

I changed names a bit, because there where some doubles.
Now using:
$options = array("1" => "Testtitle1", "2" => "Testtitle2", "3" => "Testtitle3");

/*
$options[] = "Testtitle1";
$options[] = "Testtitle2";
$options[] = "Testtitle3";
*/                                         
print_r($options);
$formSelect =  new XoopsThemeForm('Select', 'SelectForm', 'index.php', 'POST');
$frmSelTitle->addElement(new XoopsFormSelect($caption="Select Title", $name="selectTitle", $value=null, $size=1, $multiple=false));
$frmSelTitle->addOptionArray($options);
$formSelect->display();


same error:
Array ( [1] => Testtitle1 [2] => Testtitle2 [3] => Testtitle3 )
Fatal error: Call to a member function addElement() on a non-object in ...

Edit: not quite the same error, as i see now.

Hi Dave_L,

i have changed the code according to your example and now it works.
1st have to add the options to the select box and afterwards add the select box to the form.


Thanks alot,

Marco
