Hi, I have a some SQL that I want to use with ZendFW, but I can't get it working and it's driving me crazy. I get the correct result with this query:

SELECT DISTINCT e.festival_id FROM entries AS e, mail_log as m 
WHERE e.status = 1 
AND e.festival_id 
NOT IN (SELECT m.entry_id FROM entries AS e, mail_log as m WHERE m.entry_id = e.festival_id)

Help would be appreciated. Cheers :)

I've been tinkering around with Zend-Framework and Jquery for a month or so, and finally started tinkering with them together using ZendX_JQuery. It seems I've ran into something that at first seemed it should be simple, So maybe I'm just missing something here.

I have a view along the lines of:

$this->ajaxLink( $this->escape($var->title),
                 $this->baseUrl() . "/another/action",
                 array('update' => '#domain' . $var->id ,                      
                	   'complete' => '$("#domain' . $var->id .'").toggle("slow");'));

echo '<div id="domain"' . $var->id . '" style="display:none;" ></div>';

Which works correctly, when the link displayed by the code above is clicked it loads the contents returned from /another/action into the domain"id" div. The problem occurs when the view loaded by the above contains an ajaxLink() the ajax link stops working. This can be fixed by adding an option to the ajaxLink() array "inline" => true but what if I need other JQuery views helpers to work when loaded into the page via ajax i.e. dialogContainer()

Thanks.

Is it possible to redirect the browser to nth step in the onepage checkout? If so, how would one go about doing it?

I'm working on a payment module and have a sort of "cancel" action that i would like to return the user to the step in checkout where you choose the payment method.

I currently return the user to the first step of the checkout like so:

$this->_redirect('checkout/onepage', array('_secure'=>true));

Hi,

I have a form that is constructed using ZendX_JQuery_Form, the form contains 2 auto complete inputs and 4 datepickers. The datepickers all worked absolutely fine until I added in the autocomplete fields as well, the autocomplete fields (linking to a backend php action in zend framework) work fine as well but they seem to break the datepicker widgets.

I know very little about JQuery but the javascript that ZF creates seems okay to me:

 $(document).ready(function() {
        $("#firstname").autocomplete({"url":"crm\/candidates\/searchfirstname"});
        $("#lastname").autocomplete({"url":"crm\/candidates\/searchlastname"});
        $("#registeredfrom").datepicker({});
        $("#registeredto").datepicker({});
        $("#updatedfrom").datepicker({});
        $("#updatedto").datepicker({});
 });

Does anyone know of any issues in either JQuery or Zend Framework that or with the code above that might cause this scenario. Also, it would be helpful even if you know there are no issues in either of the frameworks to help me narrow down the search!

Thanks in advance

Hey guys - here's a question on Zend Framework or better on MVC in general:

I am asking myself for a quiet a long time now, if it is a good idea to push business objects (User, Team, etc.) to my views or if it would be better just to push dump data containers such as arrays to the view for rendering.

When pushing business objects to my view I have a much tighter coupling between the views and my domain model, however, the view could easily do things like foreach($this->team->getUsers() as $user) { ... } which I personally find very handy.

Providing domain model data in dumb arrays to me looks more robust and flexbile but with the costs of that the view cannot operate on real objects and therefore cannot access related data using object's method.

How do you guys handle that?

Thanks much, Michael

I'm trying to allow rel attribute in a elements within HTML Purifier filter. I'm following this guide http://htmlpurifier.org/docs/enduser-customize.html and here is my code:

                $config = HTMLPurifier_Config::createDefault();
                $config->set('HTML.Doctype', 'XHTML 1.0 Strict');
                $config->set('HTML.DefinitionID', 'enduser-customize.html tutorial');
                $config->set('HTML.DefinitionRev', 1);
                $config->set('Cache.DefinitionImpl', null); // remove this later!
                $def = $config->getHTMLDefinition(true);
                $def->addAttribute('a', 'href*', 'URI');
                $def->addAttribute('a', 'rel', 'CDATA');
                $purifier = new HTMLPurifier($config);

However, the HTML purifier is still filtering out all rel attributes... I'm a little confused what the problem could be.

When I use:

$config->set('Attr', 'AllowedRel', array('something'));

I get this error:

Notice: Using deprecated API: use $config->set('Attr.AllowedRel', ...) instead on line 191 in file C:\wamp\www\neonet\application\modules\admin\controllers\IndexController.php in C:\wamp\www\neonet\library\My\htmlpurifier-4.0.0-standalone\HTMLPurifier.standalone.php on line 1819

EDIT:

New code:

                $config = HTMLPurifier_Config::createDefault();
                $config->set('HTML.Doctype', 'XHTML 1.0 Strict');
                $config->set('Attr.AllowedRel', array('something'));
                $purifier = new HTMLPurifier($config);

When I use:

<href="/" rel="something">anchor</a>

Rel attribute still gets filtered.

I've read a lot of Zend controller testing tutorials but I can't find one that explains how to test a controller that uses models and mocking those models.

I have the following controller action:-

function indexAction(){
  // Get the cache used by the application
  $cache = $this->getCache(); 

  // Get the index service client and model
  $indexServiceClient = new IndexServiceClient($this->getConfig());
  $indexModel = $this->_helper->ModelLoader->load('admin_indexmodel', $cache);
  $indexModel->setIndexServiceClient($indexServiceClient);

  // Load all the indexes
  $indexes = $indexModel->loadIndexes();

  $this->view->assign('indexes', $indexes);
}

At the moment I have a very basic test case:-

public function testIndexActionRoute() {
  $this->dispatch( '/admin/index' );
  $this->assertModule('admin', 'Incorrect module used');
  $this->assertController('index', 'Incorrect controller used');
  $this->assertAction('index', 'Incorrect action used');
}

This test works but it's calling the real models and services, which sometimes means it times out and fails on the test environment. In order to properly unit test just the controller I need to have mocks and expectations for IndexServiceClient and IndexModel - how is this done?

Is there a way to store an array and then query that array?

I've got a collection of items, which are tagged. I'd like to be able to search all items that match for example tags 55 and 67.

How would I achieve this?

Hello everyone,

I want to to make a particular processing for the last item of a partialLoop, the documentation mention about $this->partialCounter but not the variable with the total number of items ...

<?php
if( $this->partialCounter == $mysteryvariable -1 ): 
?>

I am missing something I think ... cannot get my hand on that variable ...

Hi I did register form in with zend form

$password = new Zend_Form_Element_Password('password');
$password->setLabel($this->_translate->_("Password:"))
    ->setRequired(true)
    ->addValidator('stringLength', true, array(4, 32));

$confirmPassword = new Zend_Form_Element_Password('confirmpassword');
$confirmPassword->setLabel($this->_translate->_("Confirm Password:"))
    					->setRequired(true);

I control password and confirmpassword in controller. if password and confirmpassword don't match then add error message under confirmpassword textbox. how i do?

Hello every body,

i m using zend form & create its elements using the code below.

// To create text box. $txt = $this->CreateElement('text', 'txtName'); $txt = $this->setLabel('First Name'); $elements[] = $element;

it works fine & it is posted firm form as well. But when i used the same technique to show a browse button, like.

// To Create Browse Button. $img = $this->CreateElement('file', 'imageId'); $img = $this->setLabel('Upload Image');

$elements[] = $element;

it does not work.

Namespaces are really useful and PHP had no support for them until the recent few releases, AFAIK.
When I'm using Zend Framework, I have to remember long names with underscores - like Zend_Form_Element_Button or Zend_Form_Decorator_HtmlTag and so on.
If I use namespaces, this might be possible, and so much easier:

namespace Zend {
  class something {
    // ...
  }
}

namespace Zend\Form {
  class something {
    // ...
  }
}

namespace Zend\Form\Element {
  class Button {
    // ...
  }
}

And to use it I do this:

use Zend\Form\Element\Button;
$btn1 = new Button();

So my question is, is it trivially possible, given the autoloader system and a lot of meta-class "black magic" that lives inside Zend Framework, to rewrite the structure of the code using namespaces, and then have more sensible class names?
The problem is not the length of the class names - Eclipse/Netbeans/Aptana handle that very well, it is the irritant that long names are.
Tends to get confusing after some time if some classes you use have similar parts in the names.
Since ZF is open source licensed, I don't think Zend would mind a namespaced version of the code, if mere renaming and some re-organization of code can achieve that.

I'm an amateur PHP programmer and want to know if I'm better served by going with the Zend Framework, or if I should learn ASP.NET MVC?

Which has better 'free' resources on the internet? Which would you recommend? What are your experiences with either?

I'm trying to create the same solutions as below, but using a simple MySQL query (instead of the static version used below where the words/tags are implemented in the code). The name of the MySQL table is "tags" and it has 2 columns "id" & "tag".

Unfortunately I'm a beginner and I wasn't able to solve this. Can someone help me?

I assume that RESTful services is a comprehensive paradigm, that it also could cover file uploads too, as a subset of http operations.

If so, how does one do file uploads in Rest and specifically, with Zend_Service_Rest?

Should my client code somehow read the file and assign its content to some property of restful object? Or there is another way?
