closure validation example
closure validation exampleIt's also possible to validate a form element with a closure function
<?php
/*
* Load the library...
*/
require_once '../../HtmlForm.php';
/*
* Create the example form 'simpleForm'
*/
/*
* Adds a closure validator:
* Attach a function that validates the input.
* In this case you must enter "2" oder a string
* containing "yes" to pass validation.
*/
$form->addText('closure', array(
'label' => 'closure validated',
'required' => true,
'validator' => function($value) {
if ($value == 2) {
return true;
} else {
return strpos($value, "yes") !== false;
}
},
'errorMessage' => "Your input must include 'yes' or be '2'",
));
/*
* The process method is essential to the functionality of the form. It serves
* various purposes:
* - it validates submitted data if there is any
* - it redirects to the success page if all the data is valid
* - it stores the data in the session and redirects to the form to circumvent
* the form resubmission problem
*/
$form->process();
/*
* Finally, if the form is valid, dump the data (for demonstration). If it's
* not valid (or if it hasn't been submitted yet) display the form.
*/
if ($form->validate()) {
/*
* Success, do something useful with the data and clear the session.
* The getValues method returns an array of the form element values.
*/
echo('<a href="">back</a>');
echo('<pre>');
var_dump($form->getValues());
echo('</pre>');
$form->clearSession();
} else {
/*
* Display the form.
