Hello CodeIgnitier is very good. But when i start using it i get some problem. I have form to edit. How can i add tinymce or fckeditor to textarea? In docs i also can not find how to make update to some fileds or insert to some fields. In tutorial he insert in all fields, i want to insert or update in some fields not all of them. In docs i find this for validate http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...ation.html and http://codeigniter.com/wiki/MY_Validation/. Which one is better to use to validate email, date, empty fileds,...? Can i manualy add my js code for date in view structure or where i must put it? Regards Mitja

Add tinymce: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/65061/ Validation: You can use the standard validation library. The "MY_Validation" library just changes the standard validation library (not for the better in my opinion) JS Code: You can put it in your view, or link to any js file that you'd like. Update some fields: Either create a 'model' to handle the work of updating based on your input, or change your controller. As long as you understand PHP, you can easily choose what data to update.

Quote:The “MY_Validation” library just changes the standard validation library (not for the better in my opinion) I'm just curious as to why you're not a fan. Albeit, I am a heavy user of this library, even in the most objective frame of mind I can't think of a single downfall... maybe a bit of overhead?

I was mostly just trying to keep my comment succinct for what seems to be a non-native English speaker. It's not that I'm not a fan, I just think that in this case when a user is obviously a bit overwhelmed with the basics going off-manual is asking for trouble. The MY_Validation library for basic or new users just adds to the confusion due to the lack of documentation. Anyway, it has value, but I think it should be evaluated based on requirements, and not used arbitrarily based on inexperience. |
