Re: setting the value of a checkbox

2010-10-05 Thread Iqbal Santyaswardan
I'm actually struggling on this myself.

In my situation, I have a table and on each row there's a check box.
I want to be able to save the state of the check box of a particular
data row whenever the user clicks on it.

The CakePHP manual says that the data can be accessed via $this->data.
 However, print_r($this->data) always result in NULL.
print_r($_REQUEST) (or $_POST) will yield in array("checkbox_name" =>
"checkbox_value") only if changing the checkbox from unchecked to
checked, but not the other way.

For simplicity, I had the checkbox_name = ID of the row, and
checkbox_value = the field to set as the flag.

What is the better solution?

Regards,
Iqbal

If the field is changeable by user, you might have an ObserveField set
to that field.  See Ajax Helper.

setting the value of a checkbox

2010-10-05 Thread james
Hi i was wondering how i might set the default value of a checkbox to
the value of the field before it? So if the value of the field before
it is 1 then the checkbox would be checked by default?

thanks
