Repopulate form using set_value(?) while not using form_validator
#1

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi

My application flow is like this:
A form -> Validator (Form_Validator which makes me choose to use set_value() in the form for repopulating) -> A control page where the user can see if he/she finally has put in correct values.

If the person wants to change something, the user is directed to the form again along with post data. I therefore do somethink like $this->load->view('myform', $_POST), but since I already use set_value() (and not variable-names which corresponds to the POST-keys) my form don't get repopulated.

Well, I hope you understood my little problem.

Has someone got a solution?

set_value() is actually part of Form Helper (http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...elper.html), you can load it like this:

Code:
$this->load->helper('form');

and if data is still in $_POST array, set_value() should work for you.
