The first parameter will - contain the name of the field, the second parameter will contain an - associative array of options, and the third parameter will contain the - value you wish to be selected. You can also pass an array of multiple - items through the third parameter, and CodeIgniter will create a - multiple select for you. - - Example:: - - $options = array( - 'small' => 'Small Shirt', - 'med' => 'Medium Shirt', - 'large' => 'Large Shirt', - 'xlarge' => 'Extra Large Shirt', - ); - - $shirts_on_sale = array('small', 'large'); - echo form_dropdown('shirts', $options, 'large'); - - /* - Would produce: - - <select name="shirts"> - <option value="small">Small Shirt</option> - <option value="med">Medium Shirt</option> - <option value="large" selected="selected">Large Shirt</option> - <option value="xlarge">Extra Large Shirt</option> - </select> - */ - - echo form_dropdown('shirts', $options, $shirts_on_sale); - - /* - Would produce: - - <select name="shirts" multiple="multiple"> - <option value="small" selected="selected">Small Shirt</option> - <option value="med">Medium Shirt</option> - <option value="large" selected="selected">Large Shirt</option> - <option value="xlarge">Extra Large Shirt</option> - </select> - */ - - If you would like the opening <select> to contain additional data, like - an id attribute or JavaScript, you can pass it as a string in the fourth - parameter:: - - $js = 'id="shirts" onChange="some_function();"'; - echo form_dropdown('shirts', $options, 'large', $js); - - Or you can pass it as an array:: - - $js = array( - 'id' => 'shirts', - 'onChange' => 'some_function();' - ); - echo form_dropdown('shirts', $options, 'large', $js); - - If the array passed as ``$options`` is a multidimensional array, then - ``form_dropdown()`` will produce an <optgroup> with the array key as the - label. - - -.. php:function:: form_multiselect([$name = ''[, $options = array()[, $selected = array()[, $extra = '']]]]) - - :param string $name: Field name - :param array $options: An associative array of options to be listed - :param array $selected: List of fields to mark with the *selected* attribute - :param mixed $extra: Extra attributes to be added to the tag either as an array or a literal string - :returns: An HTML dropdown multiselect field tag - :rtype: string - - Lets you create a standard multiselect field. The first parameter will - contain the name of the field, the second parameter will contain an - associative array of options, and the third parameter will contain the - value or values you wish to be selected. - - The parameter usage is identical to using :php:func:`form_dropdown()` above, - except of course that the name of the field will need to use POST array - syntax, e.g. foo[]. - - -.. php:function:: form_fieldset([$legend_text = ''[, $attributes = array()]]) - - :param string $legend_text: Text to put in the <legend> tag - :param array $attributes: Attributes to be set on the <fieldset> tag - :returns: An HTML fieldset opening tag - :rtype: string - - Lets you generate fieldset/legend fields. - - Example:: - - echo form_fieldset('Address Information'); - echo "<p>fieldset content here</p>\n"; - echo form_fieldset_close(); - - /* - Produces: - - <fieldset> - <legend>Address Information</legend> - <p>form content here</p> - </fieldset> - */ - - Similar to other functions, you can submit an associative array in the - second parameter if you prefer to set additional attributes:: - - $attributes = array( - 'id' => 'address_info', - 'class' => 'address_info' - ); - - echo form_fieldset('Address Information', $attributes); - echo "<p>fieldset content here</p>\n"; - echo form_fieldset_close(); - - /* - Produces: - - <fieldset id="address_info" class="address_info"> - <legend>Address Information</legend> - <p>form content here</p> - </fieldset> - */ - - -.. php:function:: form_fieldset_close([$extra = '']) - - :param string $extra: Anything to append after the closing tag, *as is* - :returns: An HTML fieldset closing tag - :rtype: string - - - Produces a closing </fieldset> tag.

If you specify the full - site URL that link will be built, but for local links simply providing - the URI segments to the controller you want to direct to will create the - link. The function will build the URL based on your config file values. - - The optional second parameter allows you to force a particular redirection - method. The available methods are **auto**, **location** and **refresh**, - with location being faster but less reliable on IIS servers. - The default is **auto**, which will attempt to intelligently choose the - method based on the server environment. - - The optional third parameter allows you to send a specific HTTP Response - Code - this could be used for example to create 301 redirects for search - engine purposes. The default Response Code is 302. The third parameter is - *only* available with **location** redirects, and not *refresh*. Examples:: - - if ($logged_in == FALSE) - { - redirect('/login/form/'); - } - - // with 301 redirect - redirect('/article/13', 'location', 301); - - .. note:: In order for this function to work it must be used before anything - is outputted to the browser since it utilizes server headers. - - .. note:: For very fine grained control over headers, you should use the - :doc:`Output Library </libraries/output>` ``set_header()`` method. - - .. note:: To IIS users: if you hide the `Server` HTTP header, the *auto* - method won't detect IIS, in that case it is advised you explicitly - use the **refresh** method. - - .. note:: When the **location** method is used, an HTTP status code of 303 - will *automatically* be selected when the page is currently accessed - via POST and HTTP/1.1 is used. - - .. important:: This function will terminate script execution. diff --git a/user_guide_src/source/helpers/xml_helper.rst b/user_guide_src/source/helpers/xml_helper.rst deleted file mode 100644 index 903e925c2..000000000 --- a/user_guide_src/source/helpers/xml_helper.rst +++ /dev/null @@ -1,55 +0,0 @@ -########## -XML Helper -########## - -The XML Helper file contains functions that assist in working with XML -data. - -.. contents:: - :local: - -.. raw:: html - - <div class="custom-index container"></div> - -Loading this Helper -=================== - -This helper is loaded using the following code - -:: - - $this->load->helper('xml'); - -Available Functions -=================== - -The following functions are available: - -.. php:function:: xml_convert($str[, $protect_all = FALSE]) - - :param string $str: the text string to convert - :param bool $protect_all: Whether to protect all content that looks like a potential entity instead of just numbered entities, e.g. &foo; - :returns: XML-converted string - :rtype: string - - Takes a string as input and converts the following reserved XML - characters to entities: - - - Ampersands: & - - Less than and greater than characters: < > - - Single and double quotes: ' " - - Dashes: - - - This function ignores ampersands if they are part of existing numbered - character entities, e.g. {.
