I'd like to create a [b]custom drop down list[/b]. I think that's possible with the function [b]change_field_type[/b], using the type [b]enum[/b]. How can I say the list of values? Any other idea to create a custom drop down list? Maybe using a temporary table and use the function set_relation instead of change_field_type?

Thanks a lot.

Hello and sorry for the delayed answer.

I think that a temporary table will make your life easier. I want to add this feature at a future release to have for example:


$crud->change_field_type('jobTitle', 'enum', array('test','test1','test2'));


But still I don't have it so a quick solution is a temporary table as you said with set_relation.

Did u try callback_field() function?


$crud->callback_field('column', array($this, 'field_callback'));
$crud->render().....
public function field_callback($value = NULL)
{
$options = array('a', 'b', 'c');
$option_tag = '';
foreach($options as $option)
{
$attribute = 'value="'.$option.'"';
if ($option == $value)
{
$attribute .= ' selected="selected"';
}
$option_tag .= "<option $attribute>$option</option>";
}
return '<select name="column">'.$option_tag.'</select>';
}

Worked like a charm!


But it would be good the


$crud->change_field_type('jobTitle','enum', array('test','test1','test2'));


Thanks!

Awesome. But is there any way to use it like this:

$this->crud->change_field_type('lang', 'enum', array( 'English' => 'en', 'Russian' => 'ru' ));

and appears like:

<select>
<option value="en">English</option>
...

Thanks!

$crud->callback_column('group_exercise_id',array($this,'list_group_exercise_id'));

 

public function list_group_exercise_id($value, $row)
    {
        $name = '';
        if($value==1){
            $name = 'Text 1';
        }
        if($value==2){
            $name = 'Text 2';
        }

        return $name;
    }
