Hi there,

 

I am very new to GC and I am trying to edit a table with the following data:

 

CITY TABLE

id_city = Int, Primary key

city = varchar

id_country = FK into country table, Int

 

COUNTRY TABLE

id_country = Int, Primary key

country = varchar

 

The code to show this is:

	$crud = new grocery_CRUD();

	$crud->set_theme('datatables');
	$crud->set_table('tw_city');

	$crud->set_relation('id_country','tw_country','country');
	$crud->set_subject('City');

	$crud->columns('id_city','city','id_country');

	$output = $crud->render();
        $this->_example_output($output);

It shows the data correctly, but when I click EDIT it does not fill in the dropbox for the country field. What is odd is that if I select VIEW, it correctly shows the country associated with the selected item.

 

As far as I can see, I have set things up correctly.

 

Can anyone explain why the country dropdown does not fill on the edit page?

 

Thank you!

 

Yours,

 

JMB
