The MyInput field is initially populating as expected but the MyCheckbox isn't checked? Have I got this right?
Everything works as expected when submitting the form, if I check the box it stays checked, if I uncheck it it stays unchecked.
Code:
Controller
$data['MyCheckbox'] = true;
$data['MyInput'] = 'Hello world';
$this->load->helper('form');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('MyCheckbox', 'MyCheckbox');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('MyInput', 'MyInput', 'required');
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE){
$this->load->view('form_view', $data);
}else{
//process data.
}
Code:
View
echo '<p>';
echo form_label('My Checkbox', 'MyCheckbox');
$data = array(
'name'=>'MyCheckbox',
'id'=>'MyCheckbox',
'value'=>'1',
'checked'=>set_checkbox('MyCheckbox', $MyCheckbox)
);
echo form_checkbox($data);
echo '</p>';
echo '<p>';
echo form_label('My Input', 'MyInput');
$data = array(
'name' =>'MyInput',
'id'=>'MyInput',
'value'=>set_value('MyInput', $MyInput),
'maxlength'=>'50',
'size' =>'50'
);
echo form_input($data);
echo form_error('MyInput', '<span class="formError">', '</span>');
echo '</p>';
