  1. POSF 1.4 How to make a form with several checkboxes and a relation between 2 models
    text
    copied!<p>Good morning,</p> <p>In Symfony 1.4, I have two models, as in the following example :</p> <pre><code>ModelA id text </code></pre> <p>.</p> <pre><code>ModelB id name modele_a_id </code></pre> <p>I want to create a form with checkboxes for each ModeleB entries, and a textarea for the text of ModeleA, like that :</p> <pre><code>[] modele_b_entry_name_1 [] modele_b_entry_name_2 [] modele_b_entry_name_3 text [_______________________________] </code></pre> <p>I'm not sure of how to do that. For the moment I have modified the ModeleAForm which was generated. Here is the Form code :</p> <pre><code>$a_id = $this-&gt;getObject()-&gt;getId(); $query = Doctrine_Query::create() -&gt;from('ModeleB m') -&gt;where('m.modele_a_id = ?', $a_id); $all_modele_b_entries = $query-&gt;execute(); $this-&gt;widgetSchema['all_modele_b_entries'] = new sfWidgetFormSelectCheckbox(array('choices' =&gt; $all_modele_b_entries)); </code></pre> <p>And the template is very simple, it just shows the form. I'm getting what I want, except that the labels of the checkboxes are the id of modele_b.</p> <p><strong>I'm wondering if I should use sfWidgetFormInputCheckbox instead of sfWidgetFormSelectCheckbox and then loop on it. What do you think of this ? What is the best way to do it for you ?</strong></p> <p>Thank you in advance for your advices.</p> <p>Edit :</p> <p>Trying with the suggestion :</p> <pre><code>$this-&gt;widgetSchema['all_modele_b_entries'] = new sfWidgetFormDoctrineChoice(array( 'model' =&gt; 'ModeleB', 'expanded' =&gt; true, 'multiple' =&gt; true, 'query' =&gt; $query )); </code></pre>
 

Querying!
