Create a license agreement accept form checkout
field within a Subform with Zend Framework
After numerous of experiments because I had some issues caused
by "bug" in Zend Framework Zend_Form_Element_Checkbox which
prevents a selected checkbox to be submitted I finally was able to
create a working Zend_Form_Element_Checkbox, below you will see the
exact code of the working code which I create within a subform and
does the trick of an
Accept Agreement checkbox field which
is a perfect suit for a
Registration Form being prepared
with ZF.
$risk_statement_full = 'something';
$accept_disclaimerOptions='I accept';
$accept_disclaimer = new Zend_Form_SubForm();
$accept_disclaimer>addElements(array(
$disclaimer = new Zend_Form_Element_Checkbox('accept_disclaimer',
array(
'label' > "$risk_statement_full",
'description' > $accept_disclaimerOptions,
'uncheckedvalue' > '',
'checkedvalue' > '1',
'value' > 1,
'required' > true,
)),
));
I have to express my thanks to a bunch of guys who gave me big help
in irc.freenode.net in #zftalk - which by the way is the official
Zend Framework IRC Channel.
The guy that helped the most was with a nickname
Bittarman
thanks man!
The solution to the
* Value is required and can't be empty
error message which appeared all the time nomatter if the form
checkbox is selected or not was through using the
Zend_Form_Element_Checkbox options:
'uncheckedvalue' => ''
and
'checkedvalue' => '1'
there is also a separate Zend Methods to be used like so:
$disclaimer>setCheckedValue('');
$disclaimer&t;setUnchedkValue('');
This stupidity took me like 2 hours of googling and testing ...
finally though the above solution worked for me it appeared like
non-working because my Iceweasel browser has cached the webpage ...
If you still can't solve the issue using the above solution,
cleanse your browser cache!
