Hi,

 

I plan to set a session using callback_field.And after that want to set the field as hidden.

 

My code is like this:

$crud->callback_field('function_time',array($this,'set_functiontime_session_callback'));
$crud->field_type('function_time', 'hidden');

When I view the page source, there is no hidden field.It seems the callback_field only executed once for one particular field.

 

Here is my callback function: 

function set_functiontime_session_callback($value = '', $primary_key = null){        
   $this->session->set_userdata('fv_function_time',$value);
}

Have I do it wrongly?

If you check the documentation, you will notice that the callback_field function is to provide an alternate add and edit functionality to a particular field. Think about this, add and edit functionality apply to visible fields. Setting such a field to hidden doesn't make sense if you want add and edit functionality. In your case, it didn't become invisible.

 

If you want the field to become invisible, don't assign a callback_field function to that particular field.

 

Can you handle that?

 

Hope this helps...

Jest use in view this :

<style type="text/css">
#function_time_field_box	{
    display:none;
}
</style>

you can use firefox to find the div name. I have used this a few times to. I think the div will be function_time_field_box but not sure
