Hi, Looking at it I can see I *can* set null as the value, as per:
if (null === $value) { unset($this->$name); But I presume some decorator or other render method replaces attribute "id" with the "name" attribute value if "id" equals null I haven't been able to figure out where this is though. I looked in: Zend_Form_Element Zend_Form_Element_Hidden (which I need it for) Zend_Form_Element_Xhtml Zend_Form_Decorator_Abstract Zend_Form_Decorator_FormElements Zend_Form_Decorator_HtmlTag ...all to no avail. So any other pointers much appreciated. Cheers Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2009 11:09:54 +0300 Subject: Re: [fw-general] Disable id attribute for form elements? From: vadim...@gmail.com To: fire-eyed-...@hotmail.com CC: fw-general@lists.zend.com Hi, looking at Form/Element.php at the setAttrib function you can understand how the function works. you can tell that you can't just set null as the value. /** * Set element attribute * * @param string $name * @param mixed $value * @return Zend_Form_Element * @throws Zend_Form_Exception for invalid $name values */ public function setAttrib($name, $value) { $name = (string) $name; if ('_' == $name[0]) { require_once 'Zend/Form/Exception.php'; throw new Zend_Form_Exception(sprintf('Invalid attribute "%s"; must not contain a leading underscore', $name)); } if (null === $value) { unset($this->$name); } else { $this->$name = $value; } return $this; } Vince.

I'm building a CMS which displays a tree of pages that can be edited. The tree consists of multiple forms for each page. I'ld rather not create unique for all of them. I tried: Zend_Form_Element::setAttrib( 'id', '' ); // results in invalid W3C code: id="" Zend_Form_Element::setAttrib( 'id', null ); // results in rendering id="<name of the element>" I just simply want to disable the id attribute. Any possibilities? Cheers Alle tips en trics. Ontdek nu de nieuwe Windows Live -- Vincent Gabriel. Lead Developer, Senior Support.
