Hello.

 

I'm trying to place two (or several)  fields side by side instead of one row each. Example, if the form asks for name and gender, both fields could be placed in one row instead of two. Currently grocery place the fields one each row. The lenght of each field is easy controled by using a callback.

 

now

 

 name : ________________________  

gender: ___

 

desired behavior

 

 

name : ________________________   gender: ___

I answer my question.

 

1: hide de second field

 

 $crud->field_type('gender','hidden');

 

use a callback function

 

    $crud->callback_field('name',array($this,'field_name'));

 

put both input on callback funcion

 

function field_name($value)
{
    $result='<input type="text" maxlength="10" value="'.$value.'" id="name" name="name" style="width:100px">';

    $result .='<input type="text" maxlength="10" value="'.$value.'" id="gender" name="gender" style="width:100px">';

    return $result
}

 

Still have a problem.

The problem

 

in add mode works fine

in edit mode. I just get the value of name, but not the value of gender.

 

How can I pass two parameters to the funtion ??

 

thanks, and congrats for this wonderful piece of software.

Again, solved.

 

In the call function add the code to get the row from the database and collect the information,

 

zona and datum are fields we are looking for. CSite is the primary key of the table site.

 

    $this->db->select('zona,datum');
    $this->db->where('CSite', $primary_key);
    $result= $this->db->get('site')->row();
    // If the row is empty, set the variables to something
    if ($result == NULL) { $value_zona=''; $value_datum=''; }
    else { $value_zona = $result->zona; $value_datum=$result->datum; }

 

After the code you have the values in $value_zona and  $value_datum

You can use in the input box. For example:

 

<input type="text" maxlength="7" value="'.$value_datum.'" id="datum" name="datum" style="width:75px">

Nice.

But I would be grateful if you could have demonstrated the last part using the name and gender example.

Thanks.
