I have a controller and a view. I am trying to submit some details through a form, but when I submit it, no errors are displayed.
I am using only one controller to for 2 different types of users. The two users are –
- User
- Gym/Health Club Owner
And according to the $suertype, I have the same view being called but a different content being loaded.
This is my controller:
public function CreateProfile_Step2()
{
$data['page_title'] = 'Create Profile (Step 2)';
$loginid = $this->session->userdata('loginid');
$this->load->model('profilemodel', 'profile');
$userid = $this->profile->get_userid($loginid);
$this->session->set_userdata('userid', $userid);
$usertype = $this->profile->get_usertype($userid);
$data['usertype'] = $usertype;
if ($usertype == 'User') {
$this->load->model('activitymodel', 'activity');
$arr_activities = $this->activity->get_activities();
$data['options'] = $arr_activities;
}
else if ($usertype == 'Gym/Health Club Owner') {
$this->load->model('facilitymodel', 'facility');
$arr_facility = $this->facility->get_facilities();
$data['options'] = $arr_facility;
}
$config = array(
'User' => array(
array(
'name' => 'sex',
'label' => 'Sex',
'rules' => 'required'
)),
'Gym/Health Club Owner' => array(
array(
'name' => 'website',
'label' => 'Website',
'rules' => 'prep_url'
),
array(
'name' => 'hours_of_operation',
'label' => 'Hours of Operation',
'rules' => 'required|numeric'
),
array(
'name' => 'membership_charges',
'label' => 'Membership Charges',
'rules' => 'required|numeric'
))
);
$this->form_validation->set_error_delimiters('<div class="error">', '</div>');
$this->form_validation->set_rules($config);
if ($usertype == 'User') {
if ($this->form_validation->run('User') == FALSE) {
$this->load->view('create-profile-step-2', $data);
}
else {
$selected_options = $this->input->post('activities');
$this->activity->add_user_activities($userid, $selected_options);
$sex = $this->input->post('sex');
$this->profile->add_user_details($userid, $sex);
echo 'Profile Creation Completed!';
}
}
else {
if ($this->form_validation->run('Gym/Health Club Owner') == FALSE) {
$this->load->view('create-profile-step-2', $data);
}
else {
$selected_options = $this->input->post('facilities');
$this->facility->add_gym_facility($userid, $selected_options);
$website = $this->input->post('website');
$hours_of_operation = $this->input->post('hours_of_operation');
$membership_charges = $this->input->post('membership_charges');
$this->facility->add_gym_details($userid, $website, $hours_of_operation, $membership_charges);
echo 'Profile Creation Completed!';
}
}
}
This is my view:
<?php include 'user/inc/header.php'; ?>
<div id="content" class="row twelvecol">
<h1>Create Profile (Step 2 of 2)</h1>
<h2>For <?php echo $usertype; ?></h2>
<?php
echo form_open('register/CreateProfile_Step2');
if ($usertype == 'User') {
echo form_label('Sex', 'sex');
$options_sex = array(
'Male' => 'Male',
'Female' => 'Female'
);
echo form_dropdown('sex', $options_sex, 'male');
$ctr = 1;
echo form_label('Activities Interested In', 'activities');
foreach($options->result() as $option)
{
echo form_label($option->activity, 'activity-'.$ctr);
$arr_option = array(
'name' => 'activities[]',
'id' => 'activity-'.$ctr++,
'value' => $option->activity
);
echo form_checkbox($arr_option);
}
}
elseif ($usertype == 'Gym/Health Club Owner')
{
echo form_label('Website', 'website');
$arr_website = array(
'name' => 'website',
'id' => 'website',
'value' => set_value('website')
);
echo form_input($arr_website);
echo form_label('Hours of Operation', 'hours_of_operation');
$arr_hours = array(
'name' => 'hours_of_operation',
'id' => 'hours_of_operation',
'value' => set_value('hours_of_operation')
);
echo form_input($arr_hours);
echo form_label('Membership Charges', 'membership_charges');
$arr_charges = array(
'name' => 'membership_charges',
'id' => 'membership_charges',
'value' => set_value('membership_charges')
);
echo form_input($arr_charges);
$ctr = 1;
echo form_label('Facilities Available', 'facilities');
foreach($options->result() as $option)
{
echo form_label($option->facility, 'facility-'.$ctr);
$arr_option = array(
'name' => 'facilities[]',
'id' => 'facility-'.$ctr++,
'value' => $option->facility
);
echo form_checkbox($arr_option);
}
}
echo "<br/><br/>";
echo form_submit('submit', 'Create Profile');
echo form_close();
echo validation_errors();
?>
<a href="<?php echo site_url(); ?>/register/CreateProfile_Step1">Return to previous step</a>
</div>
<?php include 'user/inc/footer.php'; ?>
It’s more likely some problem with the $config, because I have tried changing my code and used 2 separate controllers and views for the 2 cases.
Well, since no one answered my question. I was going through the code and found the errors myself. I had used the key ‘name’ in my configuration instead of ‘field’.
INCORRECT CODE
CORRECT CODE
