Hey Guys and Girls,

I am making a filter, but the problem is that all the buttons seem to hide the filter not what they are supposed to do.

So for an example, I change the label name of my filter then I press update, but then my filter just hides itself... doesn't save the label or changes.

Also I have only the one filter active because it's just a test to see if it's possible to make a kinda search system with it.

Not sure if it's just me, but it's kinda annoying.

Hope it's just something that can be changed with otherwise a workaround or else a code change, I don't mind that kind of work, just don't want to wait for multiple months before it's fixed.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Painfull.

do you write your own handler? If yes, you should show the code...

Thanks for the quick response.

I'll try to explain it with screen shots.

Everything happens within the UI of views so there is the problem.

http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/6498/firstc.png is what I have before I press anything (not sure any more how I got it to save that it is exposed)

http://img78.imageshack.us/img78/7150/2nd.png is what happens after I press anything, be it Update/Cancel/Remove.... It looks like it always hits the Hide button and not the button it's supposed to.

Not sure what I can explain to make it more clearer, if you need more info just ask and I'll try to provide it ASAP.

Thanks again for the quick response,

Painfull

Edit:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZG23S8L0 This is the link with my .avi.... I'm leaving work in a few seconds so I'll check in later tonight for more info and stuff... If need be I'll try to get more information for you guys in the weekend.

P.S The program I quick installed F-ed up my screen colours but the problem is still visible.

There maybe a problem in your code, you're probably missing a method in your filter class

Please attach the code

I also think the problem has to be in your code.

I think you override options_submti but miss to call parent::options_submit

Hey Guys,

It would be weird if the problem was in my code just because the only thing I have done is installed your module and tried to make it work with the problem as shown in the video.... not sure what file I have to open to see this code of yours... so if you have any suggestions where to change it I would like to hear it...

Thanks in advance,

Painfull

I had this same problem today, the update button functioned like the expose button. I managed a work around by changing my theme back to the Drupal standard. Hope this helps.

So you theme is broken. I'm not sure why/how views should/could fix issues in contrib/custom themes.

Ok, I did the same thing provided in the video. I got the message:

This identifier is not allowed.

After change the operator from 'value' to other string I worked without problems.

Maybe you have a problem with your PHP error display. But in my case I cannot replicate and it works like expected.
