Re-population with set_select() and arrays as field names |

Hello, I'm kinda stuck with getting re-population working when I use arrays as field names for my dropdows. I'm working on a tool to update my menu's, the tool displays the menu items in a table with a row for each menu item. The table has some columns to set the attributes for the menu items, like name, type, url, etc. I want to be able to update all menu items with one save button so I use arrays as field names: Menu item 1: name[], type[], url[] Menu item 2: name[], type[], url[] For the name and url fields I use normal text inputs. That didn't work out of the box with the current form validation library, but the following update from CI Reactor fixed that https://bitbucket.org/ellislab/codeignit...fc3732e593 Now I'm struggling to get that working for the dropdowns aswell. I use the following code in my view: Code: <select name="type[]"> And I use the following rule for the form validation: Code: $this->form_validation->set_rules('type[]', 'lang:type', 'alpha_numeric_special|required'); The table loads fine with the correct defaults being selected. But when I change the type for one menu item, and make sure to get an error from the validation library, the re-population forces the selected type to all menu items instead of just the one I updated. Does anyone have a clue what is going on here? Is my implementation wrong or is it buggy like set_value was. Thanks in advance for your help.

It was due to a bug which I finally managed to fix: https://bitbucket.org/ellislab/codeignit...population |
