Validation - Compare - custom id

[sreenadh]

Attribute 'total_amount' has a custom id 'total_amount'. Client-side validation is not taking this id.

Validation rule

['received_amount', 'compare', 'compareAttribute' => 'total_amount', 'operator' => '<=', 'type' => 'number'],

What steps will reproduce the problem?

$form->field($job_card, "total_amount")->textInput(['class'=>'form-control', 'id' => 'total_amount', 'readOnly'=>'readOnly']) ?>

What is the expected result?

client side JS.

{
    "id": "jobcard-received_amount",
    "name": "received_amount",
    "container": ".field-received_amount",
    "input": "#received_amount",
    "enableAjaxValidation": true,
    "validate": function(attribute, value, messages, deferred, $form) {
        yii.validation.compare(value, messages, {
            "operator": "<=",
            "type": "string",
            "compareAttribute": "**total_amount**",
            "skipOnEmpty": 1,
            "message": "Received Amount must be less than or equal to \"Total Amount\"."
        });
        yii.validation.required(value, messages, {
            "message": "Received Amount cannot be blank."
        });
        yii.validation.number(value, messages, {
            "pattern": /^\s*[-+]?[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+([eE][-+]?[0-9]+)?\s*$/,
            "message": "Received Amount must be a number.",
            "skipOnEmpty": 1
        });
    }
}

What do you get instead?

{
    "id": "jobcard-received_amount",
    "name": "received_amount",
    "container": ".field-received_amount",
    "input": "#received_amount",
    "enableAjaxValidation": true,
    "validate": function(attribute, value, messages, deferred, $form) {
        yii.validation.compare(value, messages, {
            "operator": "<=",
            "type": "string",
            "compareAttribute": "**jobcard-total_amount**",
            "skipOnEmpty": 1,
            "message": "Received Amount must be less than or equal to \"Total Amount\"."
        });
        yii.validation.required(value, messages, {
            "message": "Received Amount cannot be blank."
        });
        yii.validation.number(value, messages, {
            "pattern": /^\s*[-+]?[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+([eE][-+]?[0-9]+)?\s*$/,
            "message": "Received Amount must be a number.",
            "skipOnEmpty": 1
        });
    }
}

Thank you for your issue.

Unfortunately code that is not formatted as code blocks is extremely hard to read. Please check GitHub formatting guide and wrap code accordingly.

Thanks!

We are facing the same issue with Yii 2.0.20. Can anyone provide an update on this?

[developedsoftware]

This is still happenin in 2.0.38. Has there been a fix?

[samdark]

No. The issue is open.

Currently, this does not disturb the validation process at all (unless there happens to be another html element with same id) right? since the js handles it via attribute-name: https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/4ed14bb738a7dde5f80a3cf2cb9987a892c9f7bc/framework/assets/yii.validation.js#L281-L284
