How do I autofill a field using get(Joomla/JCook Component)?
Posted: Fri Jun 19, 2015 8:25 pm
Being really new to PHP and also "old
" I am struggling to understand how I update a field from a url: Forgive me I have given it a good try. I tried to update the following code with the <?php echo $_GET["entered"] but it doesn't work. - The field is a date field. I have already worked out how to add the ?entered=(result from other page) into the URL. And have seen how it can fill a field from the following example..
I just don't know how to get it to work in the code below... I just updated the php echo with the value "worth a crack when u dont know what the result will be" What am I missing??
This is off a view page in a component created in J-Cook for Joomla...
Thanks in advance if someone is kind enough to show me what I have done wrong.
Code: Select all
<input autocomplete='off' class='loginInput' tabindex='3' type="text" name="company" id="incident" value="<?php echo $_GET["entered"]; ?>Code: Select all
<?php
// incident
$field = $fieldSet['jform_incident'];
?>
<div class="control-group <?php echo 'field-' . $field->id . $field->responsive; ?>">
<div class="control-label">
<?php echo $field->label; ?>
</div>
<div class="controls">
<?php echo $field->input autocomplete='off' value="<?php echo $_GET["entered"]; ?>"; ?>
</div>
</div>Thanks in advance if someone is kind enough to show me what I have done wrong.
