Multi checkbox – correct way to group checkboxes ? about october-plugin-forms HOT 10 CLOSED

Yes ...
Of course.

Sorry for asking @damsfx ...

from october-plugin-forms.

Hello @damsfx

Using

<input type="checkbox" name="chk_group[]" value="value1" />Value 1<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk_group[]" value="value2" />Value 2<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk_group[]" value="value3" />Value 3<br />

the values are stored on the database but the record details page throw an error.

I'm fixing this page to display a list with the values, but i think the only way to get this data is to name the fields like chk_group[]

Hi @skydiver

Yes, I've take look at the DB and see that only the details page wait for a string when an array is used.

And yes, it's the only known HTML method to get group values in forms treatment.

Thanks again for your time.

Can't get it working ...

Return an error when submiting the form
"An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("nl2br() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given") ...
Despite this error, all database insertions and the "backend" display work

Any ideas ?

Hi,

Yes problem still there.
Test version : 1.3.5

The origin of the error seems to lie when adding these 2 lines

    {{ form_token() }}
    <div id="{{ ContactForm }}_forms_flash"></div>

This form work :

<form data-request="{{ ContactForm }}::onFormSubmit">
	<input type="checkbox" name="color[]" id="checkbox-1" value="red"   />Red
	<input type="checkbox" name="color[]" id="checkbox-2" value="blue"  />Blue
	<input type="checkbox" name="color[]" id="checkbox-3" value="green" />Green

	<input class="btn btn-success" value="Envoyer" type="submit" required>
</form>

This not :

<form data-request="{{ ContactForm }}::onFormSubmit">
	{{ form_token() }}
	<div id="{{ ContactForm }}_forms_flash"></div>

	<input type="checkbox" name="color[]" id="checkbox-1" value="red"   />Red
	<input type="checkbox" name="color[]" id="checkbox-2" value="blue"  />Blue
	<input type="checkbox" name="color[]" id="checkbox-3" value="green" />Green

	<input class="btn btn-success" value="Envoyer" type="submit" required>
</form>
