I have seen many questions about adding an additional field to the HABTM,
yes, and all of them refer to using a select option and adding 1 field to a
1 select form. But that’s not at all what I am trying to do.
1 form, find->('list), list is array of Skills, $skills is a HABTM form for
User to select thiere appropriate skills from, I added "year" to the HABTM
So since the form spits out all 20 checkboxes in a row (not the styling, the
code itself is checkbox, checkbox, checkbox........) I have to find a way to
add my new YEAR input inbetweeneach checkbox so it ends up checkbox year
repeat for each skill in the array
I am using 20 checkboxes in a form and need 20 additional input fields. 1
for each checkbox. User can select their skills from the checkbox list, "yes
im good at this this and this and they can enter in the years of experience
for each of the ones they have selected"
::: FORM :::
Skill1 [X] Years of Experience__25_____
Skill1 [] Years of Experience________
Skill1 [X] Years of Experience__10_____
Skill1 [] Years of Experience________
Skill1 [X] Years of Experience___5____
Skill1 [X] Years of Experience___4____
Skill1 [] Years of Experience________
::: END FORM :::
I have my fields andmy checkboxes created nw by looping thru a foreach but
the checkboxes are never populated. I tossed in dummy years to thedbso that
get pulled and displayed in the form when the user goes to edit but it’s the
checkboxes that neverhave any data inthem.
Debug ($this->data) and the checkbox data is there. Year is there.
That’s were I am stuck.
Getting the checkboxes that have data to be checked.
- Your question is answered in the docs
- Your question when googled finds an answer
Given what your saying, most of the above will be true.

What question - why are you creating a new thread to apparently complain
about another thread.
If you don't get a response to a question consider the following:
- Your question isn't clear (in this case - where is/was it)
- Your question has been answered many times already
- Your question is answered in the docs
- Your question when googled finds an answer
Given what your saying, most of the above will be true.
Also bear in mind - it's a mailing list, you (apparently) asked over a
weekend, and it's close to xmas, all of which mean you need to be patient.

PS Your blackmaily "nobody knows" technique isn't going to win you any
friends.
