Author Quickform ElementGrid - how to addRule()

2007-03-21, 7:01 pm

I am adding a grid of editable 'text' elements to a ElementGrid in
HTML_Quickform. I would like to add validation rules ...
In the code below (***) I try and use "addRule" to no avail. Any ideas
on how to make the validation of each element work?
Thanks.

{
$elementGrid =& $form->addElement('elementGrid', 'elementGrid',
$prompt, array('actAsGroup' => true));
foreach($colheadings as $aheading) {
$elementGrid->addColumnName($aheading);
}

$numrows = count($data); // data contains 2 dimenensional array of
numbers

$numcols = count($colheadings);
// echo "addGrid:: numrows=$numrows numcols=$numcols
<br>";

for ($i=0; $i<$numrows; $i++) {
$row = null;
for($j=0; $j<$numcols; $j++) {
$itemname = "grid_${name}_${i}_${j}";
$row[] =& HTML_QuickForm::createElement('text', $itemname,
$itemname, array('size' => 10));
*** $form->addRule($itemname, "field must be numeric", 'numeric',
null, 'server');
}
$gridrows[] = $row;
}
$elementGrid->setRows($gridrows);
}
