This is a problem because _save_and_list is the normal behavior in most applications when you click on the Save button. It is also a problem because the default "save and redisplay the same item" behavior requires the user to click "cancel" to move on, which is conceptually confusing and causes anxiety. When you're happy with your work you should not have to "cancel" things just to move along normally. But it's not necessary to argue about whether _save_and_list should be the default behavior of _save. It's just necessary to support _save_and_list for those of us who really, really prefer it and want to build web apps that act like normal apps in this way. Unfortunately support for _save_and_list has been regressing, not progressing. In Symfony 1.0, there was no _save_and_list action per se. You had to fake it in _edit_actions.php, which is not good. But if you set up your own <input type="submit" name="save_and_list" /> button, it worked. Code in the admin generator took care of it from there. In Symfony 1.2, things are worse. There is still no _save_and_list action. The Propel admin generator class still implements the save_and_list case, so you can do the "_edit_actions" trick with Propel. But the Doctrine admin generator doesn't have that feature. That means you have to hack it in by adding a custom action to your admin generated class. And that is not straightforward because the redirect at the end of the normal save action means you can't reuse the implementation. I've spent a lot of time working around this issue in Symfony 1.0 projects, and now even more time for Symfony 1.2. The admin generator should make it easier to do the usual thing. I think _save_and_list should be implemented as a first-class option in the admin generator. Also, its default label should just read "Save," or at least be easy to override. -- Tom Boutell P'unk Avenue 215 755 1330 punkave.com window.punkave.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony developers" group.
