I have this problem now also.
It all works in FF but not in IE. The login issue I had before was due to the cookie not saving with the local vhost domain I was using.

Shodan: I had that problem too, I fixed it by just disabling the multi-user stuff, since I don’t need it anyway.

this problem in your server options

Hey Guys, I’m sorry about the inactivity yesterday, I got busy in some offline stuff.

first off, vascopj glad you got it working.

MaRKTD,
1) (In reference to post #52) I don’t understand, does DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR not work with you?

2) (In reference to posts #54 and 55) Yeah DbDropDown needs to be refreshed..I haven’t updated it since two versions ago

Shodan, Just wondering, does the “editing just refreshes” problem only occur in IE?

I need to do some more testing in IE i guess.

*sighs…jTaby opens Parallels*

Yes mate, it seems to only apply to IE6 & IE7. Welcome to IE hell lol

Guys, I am drawing blank on this IE issue (i recreated it..so there _is_ a problem), I just don’t know what it would be…I don’t understand how IE could have an issue with this…

Hi, I added some stuff to dbdropdown.php to make it work, if anyone is interested:

<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed'); 
include_once("dropdown.php");

class DbDropDown extends DropDown{
    function DbDropDown($name,$params){
        DropDown::DropDown($name,$params);
    }

    function prepForDisplay($value){
        if($value !== "") {
            $CI = &get;_instance();
            $field = $this->params['field'];
            $table = $this->params['table'];
            $key = $this->params['key'];
            if(!isset($CI->db)) $CI->load->database();
            $result = $CI->db->query("SELECT $field FROM $table WHERE $key = $value");
            $result = $result->result_array();
            return $result[0][$field];
        }
    }

    function getList(){
        $CI = &get;_instance();
        if(!isset($CI->db)) $CI->load->database();

        $html = "";
        $field = $this->params['field'];
        $table = $this->params['table'];
        $key = $this->params['key'];

        $result = $CI->db->query("SELECT $field , $key FROM $table");
        foreach($result->result_array() as $row){
            if($row[$field] == $this->value)
                $html .= "<option value=\"".$row[$key]."\" selected>".$row[$field]."</option>\n";
            else
                $html .= "<option value=\"".$row[$key]."\">".$row[$field]."</option>\n";
        }

        return $html;
    }
}

?>

Thanks for the contribution dleavitt, you might want to create an account at http://www.codeextinguisher.com and add it there for everyone to download 😊 although in this case, I’ll include these changes for RC8

Btw, I figured out that IE problem, it’s because the edit and delete buttons are in the form <button>..</button> which IE apparently doesn’t like

done. Just fyi, there was a problem in the code I posted:

if($row[$field] == $this->value)

should be

if($row[$key] == $this->value)

Shodan: I had that problem too, I fixed it by just disabling the multi-user stuff, since I don’t need it anyway.

Hi dleavitt,

Is there a simple way to do this?

Cheers,
Terry

first of all thanks, this looks great.

i have everything set up and most things seem to be working but when i try to edit a record the form will not load. i get the error “PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined method CI_DB_mysql_driver::get_where()” in my log file. this happens in the example as well as my own.

i’m using the latest version of CodeIgniter and CodeExtinguisher

thanks

**UPDATE**

hmm… even though i’m using 1.6.1 changing get_where to getwhere seems to have fixed the issue. strange.

It seems that current demonstation at http://www.codeextinguisher.com/demo.php/template is broken.
I’ve used Opera, and page looks like HTML code is wrong - unclosed tag or something like that.
I can post a screenshot if needed.

Yes, the demo is actually version 1.4 which pales in comparison to version 2.0

i’ve run into one more issue. when trying to use DbDropDown i get the error.

“Could not find proper plugin.”

I’m not having any luck tracking down what could cause this. The DbDropDown plugin is there.

here is the relevant section from my definition file

company_id:
    class: DbDropDown
    params:
         table:companies
         key:id
         field:name

arghh… i’m an idiot. there was a tab in the white space before class instead of spaces.

this is my last stupid post, i promise.  :cheese:
