confirm_form in a block

By stone_d on 7 Apr 2010 at 17:54 UTC

Hi people,

i developed a little module to generate voucher-codes out of userpoints. The user can choose how many userpoints he wants to redeem. I.e. 250, 500, 750 or 1000. To make that possible, my module (called "userpoints_redeem") has a little form with a dropdown-menue that holds the values and a submit-button. All that is shown in a block.

I implemented the following workflow: _FORM -> _VALIDATE -> _SUBMIT and everthing works fine (the feedback for the user that the transaction has happened is solved with drupal_set_message()).

Now i want to insert a confirm_form to let let the user confirm the transaction. But the confirm_form doesnt show up in the block. Means like: nothing happens.

My question: is it possible to show the confirm_form in that block? Or do i have to put that all in the page? I havent found anything on the net about it.

Thanks in advance
Fabian

This works for me:


function confirm_form_block_block($op = 'list', $delta = 0, $edit = array())
{
	if($op == 'list')
	{
		$block = array();
	    $block[0]["info"] = t('Confirm Form');
	    return $block;
	}
	elseif($op == 'view')
	{
		$block['subject'] = t('Confirm Form');
	    $block['content'] = drupal_get_form('confirm_form_block_form');
		return $block;
	}
}

function confirm_form_block_form($form_state)
{
	$form['item'] = array
	(
		'#type' => 'value',
		'#value' => 1,
	);
	return confirm_form($form, t('Can you see this form?'), '<front>', t('Can you see this form?'));
}

function confirm_form_block_form_submit($form, &$form_state)
{
	$form_state['redirect'] = '<front>';
}

Hm - i got the following workflow and its definately happening nothing after i pressed the submit-button. Do you know whats wrong with it?

function userpoints_redeem_form() {

	global $user;
	$userid = $user->uid;
	$userpoints_amount = userpoints_get_current_points($userid, 45);

	$userpoints = array('250','500','750','1000');
	$euros = array('5','15','30','50');	
	$amount = 0;
	
	/*Fill the array for the select-dropdown and disable the values that are not selectable due to less userpoints*/ 
	for($i = 0; $i <  count($userpoints); $i++) {
		$values[$userpoints[$i]] = $userpoints[$i] . " userpoints = " . $euros[$i] . " EUR";

You aren't calling this function anywhere: userpoints_redeem_form_confirm()

Thanks again ... Well - im

Thanks again ...

Well - im also not calling the _VALIDATE-function explicitly... i thought _form_confirm is a hook thats implemented automatically into the workflow after the validate-function. But maybe i was wrong in assuming this :)
So where should i return the confirm_form in my workflow?

Thanks in advance

_validate() and _submit()

_validate() and _submit() functions are automatically called by drupal_get_form(), but _confirm() isn't called (as far as I know at least - I've never seen that anywhere).

Basically, you can re-write your form function like this:

function mymodule_form($form_state)
{
  if(!isset($form_state['storage']['confirm']))
  {
    // do your normal $form definition here
    return $form;
  }
  else
  {
    // do your confirm form here
    return confirm_form($form);
  }
}

function mymodule_form_validate($form, &$form_state)
{
  if(!isset($form_state['storage']['confirm'])) 
  {
    // put any initial validation here. This only be called the first time through, not when the confirm button has been pushed.
  }
}

function mymodule_form_submit($form, &$form_state)
{
    if(!isset($form_state['storage']['confirm']))
    {
      $form_state['storage']['confirm'] = TRUE; // this will cause the form to be rebuilt, entering the confirm part of the form
    }
    else
    {
      // this is where you do your processing after they have pressed the confirm button
    }
}

man - that rocks!!! Thank you

man - that rocks!!! Thank you very much. This code is working as i wanted it to!
Even i dunno if that the correct/best way to solve this problem, it is solved ... so ;)

Thank you very much!

So I got your example

So I got your example working! Yes!

One caveat, had to add $form_state['rebuild'] = TRUE; right after setting confirm to true, otherwise the form would just reload its current state or do nothing.

So the submit function that worked for me (ignore php tag):

<?php
function mymodule_form_submit($form, &$form_state)
{
    if(!isset($form_state['storage']['confirm']))
    {
      $form_state['storage']['confirm'] = TRUE; // this will cause the form to be rebuilt, entering the confirm part of the form
      $form_state['rebuild'] = TRUE;
    }
    else
    {
      // this is where you do your processing after they have pressed the confirm button
    }
}
?>

Thank you so much for the post!
