'Form element has value' fails to match CCK field on build form

i'm having the same problem.

Has this been fixed?

I'm having the same problem.

I'm chiming here rather than creating a new issue because my error is similar and may be related. The differences are:

Version: We're using 6.1.2
Event: Form is being validated
CCK Text field widget: Radio button

"Form element has value" is set as a condition. The text from a single line in the CCK is cut and pasted into the condition's value field. When the form validates on a node set to match the condition, Rules reports:

2.154 ms Condition "Form element 'field_workflow' value check" evaluated to FALSE

Even though the values match and the rule should evaluate to True.

This rule tested properly during development so I believe that a recent update broke it and we missed that in our post-update testing.

Subscribing, I know field ID is right because the show error message action works. Use field_driver_number[value] for ID and

101

for value. Node with this value for field_driver_number does not trigger error message action.

Had a go with http://drupal.org/project/validation_api and succeeded.

I'm trying to test the value in a cck textfield that is shown as a select list on the node edit form. I can't get a successful match.

field_workflow_state is a cck textfield with possible values (Draft, Review, Approved, etc)

It appears on the node edit form as follows

<select name="field_workflow_state[value]" class="form-select required" id="edit-field-workflow-state-value">
<option value="Draft">
<option value="Review">
<option value="Approval" selected="selected">
<option value="Approved">
<option value="Superseded">
</select>

The element ids are shown as:
Element ID: group_workflow[field_workflow_state][value]
Element ID: group_workflow[field_workflow_state]

In my rule I create a condition that form element ID has value. I've tried both Element IDs and the value is Approval, but it always evaluates as FALSE

0 ms "Policy node form is being built" has been invoked.
0.088 ms Executing the rule "Workflow - Policy prevent Author edits in Approval, Approved, Superseded" on rule set "Policy node form is being built"
0.352 ms Condition "Form element workflow_state is Approval" evaluated to FALSE.

Subscribing.

This functionality continues to elude me -- I hadn't considered the possibility that maybe it's just a little buggy.

You can it to work with single on/off fields this way:
- use field_name[value] as the field when checking condition
- enter 0 for the first field value (off)
- the second value works as expected (on)
- change comparison in rules_forms_condition_element_value() to be == instead of ===

Seems to be no way to pull a «True» result out of a «CCK single on/off checkbox» with a «Form element has value» condition.

Drupal 6 end of life was 24 Feb 2016. Drupal 6 and Rules 6.x-1.x are no longer supported as of that date, and no bugs with those versions will be investigated or fixed.

Rules Form Support is a separate module in Drupal 7. If this issue is still a problem in the Drupal 7 or Drupal 8 version of Rules Form Support, please open a new issue in that module's queue, with complete details of how to reproduce the bug.
