Use of 'source=""' for select in 'multiple' doesn't work
I have
<multiple name="entries" min-entries="2">
<tr>
<td><select name="nominal"><options source="nominals"/></select></td>
<td><input name="dr" type="number"></td>
<td><input name="cr" type="number"></td>
<td><button class="btn.del" value="Del"/></td>
</tr>
</multiple>
This fails to set the options correctly with $form->source('nominals', $this->nominals);
and instead renders as
<div class="multiple">
<div id="multiple152640179011218686025afb0afe01ff2" class="multiple-forms">
<div class="multiple-element" id="multiple15264017906284506685afb0afe020d3"/>
<tr>
<td><select name="entries[0][nominal]" source="nominals" >
</select>
</td><td><input step="any" type="number" name="entries[0][dr]" /></td><td><input step="any" type="number" name="entries[0][cr]" /></td><td><button class="btn.del" value="Del"/></td></tr>
<span class="multiple-remove"><a href="javascript:Formidable.removeInput('multiple15264017906284506685afb0afe020d3')">Remove</a><br /></span></div><div class="multiple-element" id="multiple152640179014166551895afb0afe02190"/>
<tr>
<td><select name="entries[1][nominal]" source="nominals" >
</select>
</td><td><input step="any" type="number" name="entries[1][dr]" /></td><td><input step="any" type="number" name="entries[1][cr]" /></td><td><button class="btn.del" value="Del"/></td></tr>
<span class="multiple-remove"><a href="javascript:Formidable.removeInput('multiple152640179014166551895afb0afe02190')">Remove</a><br /></span></div></div>
<div class="multiple-buttons"><script type="text/javascript">var multiple152640179011218686025afb0afe01ff2_code = "\n <tr>\n <td><select name=\"entries[{number}][nominal]\" source=\"nominals\" >\n<\/select>\n<\/td><td><input step=\"any\" type=\"number\" name=\"entries[{number}][dr]\" \/><\/td><td><input step=\"any\" type=\"number\" name=\"entries[{number}][cr]\" \/><\/td><td><button class=\"btn.del\" value=\"Del\"\/><\/td><\/tr>\n";
Formidable.multiple["multiple152640179011218686025afb0afe01ff2"] = 2;
</script><a href="javascript:Formidable.addInput('multiple152640179011218686025afb0afe01ff2', multiple152640179011218686025afb0afe01ff2_code);">Add</a></div></div>
instead of filling in the select options as expected.
I can see in 'Form.php'
/**
* Values sourcing
*/
public function source($source, $data)
{
$sources = $this->parserData->getSources();
$sources[$source]->source($data);
}
This is only getting the sources for the outer form, not any multiples
within it.
This could be changed to recurse into any multiples
but then there is the consideration of what the javascript is going to do on row addition etc.
Can you suggest a sensible workaround, or point me in the right direction to create a PR?
Cheers
I believe you are right, since multiple is actually handled with "sub-forms" the source should also be handled for them
Maybe another use case that is not handled and would require a source
-improvement is having multiple fields having the same source, like:
Your favourite colour:
<select name="favourite_colour" source="colours"></select>
You second favourite colour:
<select name="second_favourite_colour" source="colours" /></select>
ok - understood
