Hi Guys,

I am trying to do this since last 8 hours but could not get. Now i am posting here my Problem.

I want to show my contents of the form like this.

"Select" : "Image" : "status" (it would be the heading of the table)

checkbox : image : 0
checkbox : iamge : 1
checkbox : iamge : 0
checkbox : iamge : 0
checkbox : iamge : 1
..
..
..
submit(button)

The images ares not placed on their places but come at the end of the whole table in a row.
For this i am using this code.

<?php
$content = image_gallery_print_service();
function image_gallery_print_service($type = null)
{
global $user;
$type = new stdClass();
$type->message = t('There is no image');
$form = array();
$print_res = db_query("SELECT * FROM {print_service} where uid=$user->uid");
$total_print_num = db_num_rows($print_res);
if($total_print_num>0)
{
while ($node = db_fetch_object($print_res))
{
$node = node_load($node->nid);
$nodes[$node->nid] = '';
$form['selected'][$node->nid] = array('#type' => 'checkbox');
$form['nid'][$node->nid] = array(
'#type' => 'markup',
'#value' => image_display($node, 'thumbnail'),
'#tree' => true,
);
$form['sticky'][$node->nid] = array('#type' => 'markup', '#value' => t($node->sticky));
} // end of while loop
$form['selected']['#tree'] = TRUE;
$form['name']['#tree'] = TRUE;
$form['sticky']['#tree'] = TRUE;
$form = theme_sample_form($form);
} // end of if for $total_print_num
else
{
$form['results'] = array(
'#type' => 'item',
//'#title' => t('You have not uploaded any image for printing service'),
'#value' => t('You have not uploaded any image for printing service.'),
);
$form= drupal_render($form);
}
return $form;
}
function theme_sample_form($form) {
$output .= drupal_render($form['common']);
$header = array('Select', 'Name', 'Status');
$rows = array();

foreach ($form['selected'] as $nid => $element ) {
$rows[] = array(
drupal_render($form['selected'][$nid]),
drupal_render($form['name'][$nid]),
drupal_render($form['sticky'][$nid])
// Add elements as needed, status, access, etc
);

}
if ( count($rows) ) {
$output .= theme('table', $header, $rows);
}
$output .= drupal_render($form);
return $output;
}

I want help to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.

$form = theme_sample_form($form);
[...]
$form= drupal_render($form);

That's not how you theme a form. There are plenty of tutorials on Form API.

Try:

$form['#theme'] = 'sample_form';

Next time wrap your code posting in <code>

Hi Guys,

After searching alot, I have got the error in my code.
If you study this example and try to make it run, how you will invoke this code.

function theme_test_form($form) {
  $output = '';
  $output .= drupal_render($form['name']);
  $output .= '<div class="foo">';
  $output .= drupal_render($form['access']);
  $output .= '<div class="bar">';
  $output .= drupal_render($form['details']);
  $output .= '</div></div>';
  $output .= drupal_render($form);
  return $output;
}

...............How you will call this function. If you call this function like this.

function test_page() {
  $drupal = drupal_get_form('test_form');
  $form['#theme'] = 'test_form';
  return $form;
}

.........You will get wrong form tag like this
tform action=.......................>
and this form does not work but the contents of this form come in row fashion.

I only want to know how we will call "theme_test_form()" function for our form.

Waiting for your help.
Thanks.
