set_value with get - Hoxfoximper - 04-22-2016
Since Codeigniter 3.xx or before the set_value method has changed.
I have this in MY_form_helper
function set_value($field = '', $default = ''){
if (FALSE === ($OBJ =& _get_validation_object()))
{
if (isset($_POST[$field]))
{
return form_prep($_POST[$field], $field);
}
if(isset($_GET[field]))
{
return form_prep($_GET[$field], $field);
}
return $default;
}
return form_prep($OBJ->set_value($field, $default), $field);
}
In Codeigniter 3.xx it looks like this
function set_value($field, $default = '', $html_escape = TRUE)
{
$CI =& get_instance();
$value = (isset($CI->form_validation) && is_object($CI->form_validation) && $CI->form_validation->has_rule($field))
? $CI->form_validation->set_value($field, $default)
: $CI->input->post($field, FALSE);
isset($value) OR $value = $default;
return ($html_escape) ? html_escape($value) : $value;
}
can anybody help me rewrite it so it fixes my the get problem for my search input? and does the same as my prev code?
THX

I would recommend passing your GET data to the form validation library with the set_data() method (or not using GET with form data). See https://codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/form_validation.html#validating-an-array-other-than-post
However, I believe the following might be the CI3 equivalent of your function:
PHP Code:
function set_value($field = '', $default = '')
{
$CI =& get_instance();
$value = (isset($CI->form_validation) && is_object($CI->form_validation) && $CI->form_validation->has_rule($field))
? $CI->form_validation->set_value($field, $default)
: $CI->input->post($field, FALSE);
isset($value) OR $value = ($CI->input->get($field) === null ? $default : $CI->input->get($field));
return ($html_escape) ? html_escape($value) : $value;
}
