how to pass parameter in the Form from Views

in Form

echo Form::input('name', 'value', array('style' => 'border: 2px;'));

I need to
echo Form::input('name', $value, array('style' => 'border: 2px;'));

In your controller:

View::forge('myview', array('value' => 'please type in a name'));

Every key you pass in the data array (like 'value' in this example) becomes a local variable in the view.

in this I figured out but the problem is that the variable from the View
is not transmitted in the Form, I did not find in the documentation how
to do this

stuchin

the form is defined in a separate file _form.php like this

<?php echo Form::open(); ?>

    <fieldset>
        <div class="clearfix">
            <?php echo Form::label('Slug', 'slug'); ?>

            <div class="input">
                <?php echo Form::input('slug', Input::post('title', isset($category) ? $category->slug : ''), array('class' => 'span4')); ?>

            </div>
        </div>

        <div class="clearfix">
            <?php echo Form::label('Description', 'description'); ?>

            <div class="input">
                <?php echo Form::textarea('description', Input::post('description', isset($category) ? $category->description : ''), array('class' => 'span8', 'rows' => 8)); ?>

            </div>
        </div>
        <div class="actions">
            <?php echo Form::submit('submit', 'Да', array('class' => 'btn btn-primary')); ?>

        </div>
    </fieldset>
<?php echo Form::close(); ?>

in View

<?php echo render('categories/_form'); ?>

stuchin

once again describe the problem

controller/categories
<?php

class Controller_Categories extends Controller_Template
{

   public $template = 'template_base';

   public function action_index()
   {


   }




   public function action_edit($id = null)
   {
        --------


                $data['categories'] = $category->toArray();
                --------



        $this->template->title = "Категории";
        $this->template->content = View::forge('categories/edit', $data);

   }

Vies   /categories/edit.php

<?php

echo render('categories/_form', $categories);

here everything is right but in

categories/_form

variable $categories disappears

what I'm doing wrong of course there is nothing in the documentation?

stuchin

solved the problem

Vies /categories/edit.php

<?php
$data['category'] = $category;
echo render('categories/_form', $data);

everything proved to be simply unusually organized by passing parameters

You didn't mention you had nested views, otherwise I could have pointed this out directly.

The standard Oil code (that generates the create/edit construction with the separate _form view) relies on global view variables, which solves the issue of passing view data from one to the next.

I don't like global vars, so I never use them. That however means you have to pass the data on manually.

If you're on PHP 5.4+, you can use this to pass all view variables on the the child view:

echo render('categories/_form', $this->get_data());

If you're not on PHP 5.4, you can use this as a workaround:

echo render('categories/_form', $__data);

Obviously, you can also do it on a per-variable basis, like you have solved it now.
