(javaScript and php) field in field.

folder class/xoopsform

This is implementation consistence for all forms xoops

Validations All Forms Xoops

You missed a point...
The change I did in 2.0.15 does exactly this.

The only difference is that you called the function for
custom validation "getEspecValid", while I decided to call
it "renderValidationJS". So there is no need to add the same
thing 2 times.

Now, the 2.0.15 code requires that people make a custom
class, so I may make it a little easier, to allow people to
do things like this:

$elt = new XoopsFormText( "caption", "title", 50 );
$elt->customValidationCode = "<put JS="" code="" here="">";
$form->addElement( $elt );

I'll do it and tell you...

Just 2 comments anyway:
- If you add something to a base class (here:
XoopsFormElement) there is no need to put it again in all
children classes (XoopsFormText, XoopsFormTextarea, etc...).
This is actually what Object-Oriented programming and
classes is about: you put "common" functionality in base
classes, so you don't have to duplicate the same code
everywhere.
- When you need to add a property to an object (in your
code: "especvalid") you don't have to make get/set functions
(like getEspecValid/setEspecValid). You can let people
access the property directly by doing: $elt->especvalid =
"value". I know XOOPS is full of these ugly things
everywhere, but this is very bad habits... The fact mistakes
were done in the past does not mean we have to make them
again and again. So please do not use this in your code,
unless you really need to: your code will be easier to
understand, and faster. :-)

K Giba... I did it, you can have a look here:
http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xoops/XoopsCore/branches/2.0.x/2.0.16/htdocs/class/xoopsform/formelement.php?annotate=751
and tell me what you think.

A few details for you:
- The function I added has been put in XoopsFormElement,
which is the base class used everywhere in XoopsForm.
Because of this, you can use it in text,textarea,select,
always :-)
- The property I put is an array, so you can add several
validation rules easily.

Here is an example of use, to make a form element that can
only contain letters and be at least 6 characters:

$elt = new XoopsFormText( "Enter value", 'checkme' );
$elt->customValidationCode[] = "if
(myform.elements.checkme.length < 6 ) return false;";
$elt->customValidationCode[] = "if (
!myform.elements.checkme.match(/^[a-z]*$/) ) return false;";
$form->addElement( $elt );

I am ready your orientation abou duplicate code, yes, i
agree and thanks for explanation. :-)

About customization roles javascript and validations
back-end php, i am review all implements and tests for no
comprometed my forms with this new enfoque.

I really example for include in unique class and herance, is
good form, i agree and go to view it :-)
