Bug Notes
hbernard    2004-01-26 18:22	NB: Post 5.4 issue. As you said, this is useful mainly for large projects with multiple forms. Maybe better in an extension ? And, it is maybe possible to write the merge/overwrite function outside of phpMyEdit.class.php
michal    2004-01-26 21:30	you are right, i will do it outside pme.class. what's your idea about this ? will it be usefull ?
hbernard    2004-01-29 21:24	yes, this could be useful. If kept simple, this just a matter of merging two arrays together. Could be an additionnal tools, but current pme policy is to have only one main file. Need to think more about it.
hbernard    2004-01-29 21:51	I think this is the same as your API request : [PHP4 only]] $my_theme['date'] = Array( 'name' => 'Date', 'datemask' => 'd/m/Y', 'options' => 'ACPDVFL' ); //theme append sample $opts['fdd']['my_date_field'] = array_merge( $my_theme['date'], Array( 'name'=> 'birth date', 'options' => 'RACPDLVF', 'datemask' => 'm-Y', ) ); //theme overwrite sample $opts['fdd']['another_date_field'] = array_merge( Array( 'name'=> 'Project start date', ), $my_theme['date'] ); So, put $my_themes array in an included file, and that's it ? What would be the real help for API addition ?
michal    2004-01-29 22:00	that's that simple ??? i am ashamed of my php knowledge.... i will create a script based on that, thank's a lot.
hbernard    2004-02-02 11:10	please tell me if it does fit your needs, so I may close this bug.
hbernard    2004-02-23 18:32	Michal, is it ok to not mess phpMyEdit with such feature ?
michal    2004-02-23 18:57	yes, it can be done outside without loss of functionality, so it should be done that way. this can be marked as solved. where should i put how-to-do-this ? (like this and data removal protection)
hbernard    2004-02-23 19:03	upload in the corresponding bug report. (one clean text file, please, possibly respecting basic sgml style) I will _resolve_ bugs when they will be in a new section of the documentation called How-to if nepto agree. This bug has been requalified in 'documentation' Category.
hbernard    2004-11-01 21:24	michal, didn't you promise a how-to ? ;-) Or shall I resolve ?
michal    2004-11-07 23:14	uploaded some file. change themes definitions and include before call to 'new phpMyEditClass($opts)' comment if successful
hbernard    2004-11-08 08:19	OK, thanks. Nepto, where can we put how-to like this in the documentation (in a separate folder, maybe) ? Or shall we implement in the main class ? It could help to build high level samples...
nepto    2004-11-10 03:09	There will be long-time planned "Hints & Tips" documentation section. This will be one chapter of documentation. However the uploaded file has no SGML tag at all ;-) No problem, I will SGMLize it, but tell me guys, is DocBook so difficult to learn? :)
nepto    2004-11-27 23:43	Well, the uploaded file is mess :-) Hints & Tips is created now, but this is still postponed. I will talk with Michal about the possibilities how to get this into documentation.
