Radio Button List Validator Issue

Yii 1.1 General Discussion
1

Hi,

In a form I’ve added radio buttons using radioButtonList. Radio buttons are populated and field is required in model rules.

When I selects one radio and submits form it shows error message for field.

See code here:





<ul>

<?php

echo "<li>" . $form->radioButtonList($model, $attr, $subscription_options_data, array(

        	//'uncheckValue' => null,

        	'separator' => "</li>\n<li>",

        	'container' => '',

        	'template' => "{input} <p class='fnt-size14 font-opensansbd linHnml txt666'><span class='fnt-size14 txt000'><span class='font-rupee'>`</span>{label}</span>{{ DETAILS }}</p>",

            	//'empty' => 0,

    	)) . "</li>\n";

?>

</ul>

Ok,

No one is interested to help me!

:(

probably problem lies in your model.

post your model and controller to let ppl help you. Just posting the view alone is not a good way to get help.

Rules defined as in model class:




public function rules() {

	return array(

    	//

    	// SUBSCRIPTION OPTIONS

    	array('subscription', 'required', 'message' => 'Please choose the subscription above that’s best for you.'),

     	array('subscription', 'in', 'range' =>  array_keys(self::getSubscriptionOptions()), 'message' =>  'Subscription value({value}) is invalid.'),

    	//

    	// PERSONAL/MAILING INFORMATION

    	array('firstname, lastname, addr_1, addr_2, city, country, state, postal_code, email, phone', 'required'),

    	array('firstname, lastname, addr_1, addr_2, city', 'length', 'min' => 4, 'max' => 32),

    	//

    	array('postal_code', 'length', 'min' => 3, 'max' => 9),

    	array('country', 'exists', 'class' => 'Country', 'attribute' => 'country_id', 'allowEmpty' => FALSE),

    	//

     	array('email', 'email', 'checkMX' => TRUE, 'checkPort' => TRUE,  'message' => 'Invalid email or could be a fake {attribute}.'),

     	array('email', 'unique', 'allowEmpty' => FALSE, 'attributeName'  => 'member_email', 'className' => 'User', 'message' => 'Using  "{value}" your are already subscribed with us. Please renew your  subscription.'),

    	//

    	// PAYMENT METHODS

    	array('method, card_no, name_on_card, card_expiry_month, card_expiry_year, card_security_code_cvv', 'required'),

    	array('card_no', 'numerical', 'integerOnly' => true),

    	array('method', 'in', 'range' => array_keys(self::getPaymentMethods())),

    	array('card_security_code_cvv', 'length', 'min' => 3, 'max' => 4),

    	array('card_expiry_month', 'in', 'range' => array_keys(self::getCardExpiryMonths())),

    	array('card_expiry_year', 'in', 'range' => array_keys(self::getCardExpiryYears())),

    	//

    	array('netbank', 'required'),

    	array('netbank'),

    	//

    	// NEWS LETTER SUBSCRIPTION

    	array('nlsubscribe', 'boolean'),

	);

}

Which field from model ,you are used for radio button list…?

6

Like this, in form




        <?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'menuType'); ?>

        <?php echo $form->radioButtonList($model,'menuType',array('1'=>'Page','2'=>'PHP Page', '3'=>'External')); ?>

        <?php echo $form->error($model,'menuType'); ?>

In model rules add the field as required.




public function rules()

  return array(

   array('menuType', 'required'),

  );

}

In your case put "subscription" as field name.




<?php

echo "<li>" . $form->radioButtonList($model, 'subscription', $subscription_options_data, array(

                //'uncheckValue' => null,

                'separator' => "</li>\n<li>",

                'container' => '',

                'template' => "{input} <p class='fnt-size14 font-opensansbd linHnml txt666'><span class='fnt-size14 txt000'><span class='font-rupee'>`</span>{label}</span>{{ DETAILS }}</p>",

                //'empty' => 0,

        )) . "</li>\n";

?>

[size=2]I already added "subscription" as field name:[/size]

Download my model file and check: SubscriptionModel.php

In model its fine.

But in form where u specify "subscription" field is radio button list…?

Post your form.

Hi VINAY,

Probably you’d better check $_POST in your controller, whether $_POST[‘SubscriptionModel’] contains the attribute ‘subscription’ or not. I mean, somehow the form seems to fail to submit it.

I’m not sure, but the following event handler might be the cause of the problem:

Would you please comment it out and see what will happen?

[EDIT]

Hmm, I was wrong …

10

Actually the problem is with radioButtonList container. It works only with “container=‘span’”.

Try your self by creating any radioButtonList and set it’s container=’’. Then this will not validate. Event this will not validate if you pass any tag except only “span”.

11

You are right.

I’m sorry I was not aware that it is the problem solely in the client side.

I see this code in jquery.yiiactiveform.js:




	var getAFValue = function (o) {

		var type,

			c = [];

		if (!o.length) {

			return undefined;

		}

		if (o[0].tagName.toLowerCase() === 'span') {

			o.find(':checked').each(function () {

				c.push(this.value);

			});

			return c.join(',');

		}

		type = o.attr('type');

		if (type === 'checkbox' || type === 'radio') {

			return o.filter(':checked').val();

		} else {

			return o.val();

		}

	};

In your case, “o[0].tagName.toLowerCase()” is ‘div’, not ‘span’.

So it fails to get the proper value of radio button list.

Yes,

Meanwhile I’ve fixed issue using another trick.

Thanks for your support.

I see. The trick was a hidden field for the attribute … Nice job.
