Hi, is there any way to show the values (but like disabled="disabled")... Only when editing.. ?? For example, i have

• Car_Model (combobox)
• Car_Color (combobox)
• Observations (free text)

Following the given example, when I add, i have to complete all the data, but when I edit, I just want to edit OBSERVATIONS and show the MODEL and the COLOR using the combobox but disabled.. (like disabled='disabled' tag)....

 

Is that possible?

 

Thx!

There is a trick in this, never tried working on it directly but you surely can

/Here was the trick. Identify if the operation was Unknown / List then redirect it the users 
//profile update page
   $state_code = $crud->getState();
   if($state_code == 'edit') {
        $crud->change_field_type('field1', 'disabled');
   }

Technically this should work.

Hi Amit, thanks for your reply! But it doesnt  work at all... 

 

The field i'm trying to disable it's a combobox (retrieving the name from other table with a relation_n) 

 

So, when I apply your code, only shows an input box with the ID (not the name or description) and yes, disabled... 

 

Is there any way to show the text instead the ID ? Car_color.name (YELLOW) instead of Car_color.id (7) for ex ?

 

Thanks!!

I suggest you use the callback_field and you change from there whatever you need.

Or to be more precise callback_edit_field.

Thanks David! I've used callback_edit_field() as you suggested; and inside the callback function I used function from a model to retrieve the information from the database and replace the combobox with an input text (disabled).

 

Thanks!
