Hi,
Apologies if this has been covered before, but I did search quite a bit
and asked on IRC before posting!
As per general recommendations, in my code, I never produce any output
on a posted page, but instead issue a redirect header. This prevents the
back button breaking and people accidentally double posting things when
doing so etc. Great.
In order to pass messages of the ilk "Update successful"/"Update
failed", I use the Flash Messenger. Also great.
But I'd really like to pass the whole of the Zend_Form across with my
messages so I can redisplay the form.
I can't see anything obvious in the docs to do this, so will I just have
to build something similar to flash messenger (or extend it) to accept
adding a form to it.
I presume due to the sub form support[1] and some other posts I've
read[2], that Zend_Form is "session safe"?
If it's not I guess I'd have to store the ->getValues() (or
->getUnfilteredValues() and the
->getMessages()/->getErrors()/->getErrorMessages() and then pass then
over, then set them on a recreated form with ->populate() and
->setErrors()/->setErrorMessages() or something like that.
(I'm a little confused as to what the differences are between
->getMessages()/->getErrors()/->getErrorMessages() are (and their set*
counterparts. The API docs are far from clear on their use).
Any help/insights appreciated.
Cheers
Col
