custom
Here is my controller for the form:
class User5amController(AdminBaseController):
@expose('alims.templates.widget')
def index(self, *args, **kw):
log.debug('***%s***' %kw)
return self.widget(UserForm,kw)
The debug log is in there to confirm that the attributes I send via the URL
appears in kw (it does)
The form is here:
class UserForm(AdminPage):
entity = model.User
title = 'User'
class child(FloatForm):
cid=1
css_class = 'floatform'
buttons = [SaveButton(),CancelButton()]
help_msg = 'Enter the information for the new user'
id = HiddenField(validator=twc.IntValidator)
customer_id = TextField(
label="Customer ID",
attrs=dict(disabled=True),
value=cid
)
user_name = TextField(
label="User ID",
validator = twc.Required
)
password = PasswordField(
label="Password",
validator = twc.Required
)
Now, basically what I need is to set 'cid' in the form to the value of
'customer_id' in 'kw' - instead of its current placeholder 'cid=1'.
The template is here:
<form xmlns:py="http://genshi.edgewall.org/"; class="floatform"
py:attrs="w.attrs">
<div py:if="w.error_msg" class="formerror" py:content="w.error_msg"/>
<div py:if="w.help_msg" class="formhelp"><p
py:content="w.help_msg"/></div>
<div py:replace="w.child.display()"/>
<div py:for="button in w.buttons" class="field"
py:content="button.display()"/>
</form>
I am assuming here is where I have to do something... I just do not know
what.
