Here I've a portion of code which I don't want to show in the user interface.
<div class="form-group">
<label for="customer_id" class="col-sm-4 control-label">{{trans('sale.customer')}}</label>
<div class="col-sm-8">
{!! Form::select('customer_id', $customer, Input::old('customer_id'), array('class' => 'form-control')) !!}
</div>
</div>
I want this section to be hidden. Laravel form has form::hidden() method to do this but how can I apply this in my form::select() method.
Thanks in advance.
If you need to hide entire "form-group" div from UI add css property style="display:none" to "form-group" div. and also if you don't want customer_id field in request add 'disabled'=>true to array of 4th parameter after class.

Having a problem displaying text when longer than one line in a span with a bootstrap form-control class (see images below). Looking for a solution in Bootstrap which would wrap the text in a box but keep the look even when overflowed on to the next line.
HTML Code
View Result
EDIT Complete Code:
#*Kpi Selection/Display*#
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-lg-2 control-label">KPI Selection</label>
<div class="col-lg-10">
<span id="KpiCode-display" class="form-control">
#Html.DisplayFor(model => model.WorkOrder.KpiDetails.DetailsKpi.KpiFull)
</span>
<span id="KpiSelection-edit" style="display: none">
</span>
</div>
</div>
The form-control class needs to be applied to an input/select. The style it applies doesn't work with something like a span. If you're looking for a static text control, the class you should be applying is form-control-static. See: http://getbootstrap.com/css/#forms-controls-static.
My text is overflowing within a span element which has the class: form-control
Code:
<div class="row">
<div class="form-group col-sm-12">
<label>Notes:</label>
<span class="form-control"><%= #stuff.notes %></span>
</div>
</div>
And when #stuff.notes has a lot of text, it overflows like this:
I did look at this question, as well as this ticket within bootstrap. I am still having trouble coming up with a solution.
Update:
I realized I could use a form helper (even though it isn't a form) like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="form-group col-sm-12">
<label>Notes:</label>
<%= text_area_tag :notes, #complaint.notes, {class: "form-control", disabled: "disabled"} %>
</div>
</div>
Which renders it like this:
But I don't like how the disabled html attribute grays out the box and mutes the text. It makes it difficult for the user to read.
You could use a basic panel to get a similar feel. See Bootply Here
<label>Notes:</label>
<div class="panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-body">
Basic panel example
</div>
</div>
And if you really want to match the look of the form-control class, you could add a custom .inset-box-shadow class which would override the box shadow on the panel and give it that formy look. That may confuse users though, they may want to click and type in it.
#using (Html.BeginForm("Boxing", "Company",FormMethod.Post))
{
<div class="box">
<div>
<div class="left">
<div class="topLabel">
Id No:</div>
<div class="input_text_65">
#Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Id)
</div>
<div class="botLabel">
percentt:
</div>
<div>
<input type="text" style="width: 50px" name="percent" />%
</div>
</div>
<div class="lastDetailField">
<div class="topLabel">
D/C:
</div>
<div class="select_110">
#Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.cType, new SelectList((IEnumerable<Model.cType>)ViewData[ViewDataKeys.cTypes]), "----")
</div>
<div class="margin_top_45">
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="submit" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
If I didn't select any option in the dropdownlist (leaving the optionlabel "----" selected) and I press the submit button, the form will not be posted and the focus will be move to the dropdownlist
if I remove the optional Label, like this:
#Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.cType, new SelectList((IEnumerable)ViewData[ViewDataKeys.cTypes]))
then it will work just fine. I'm thinking if I will put an optional label, does that mean I am required to choose an item? I want the form to be submitted even if I leave the dropdownlist with the optionallabel selected.
thanks in advance!
Do you have a required attribute in your model/viewmoden on cType? I think the clientside validation is kicking in, but because you didn't set a validation helper, you're not seeing the message. The form won't submit though if you select the optional label.
I'm trying to accomplish the following mark-up for all my form elements
<div class="input-container">
<label>Topic Title</label>
<div class="input-holder">
<input type="text" />
</div>
</div>
<div class="textarea-container">
<label>Post</label>
<div class="textarea-holder">
<textarea></textarea>
</div>
</div>
invalid fields mark-up:
<div class="input-container alert">
<label>Topic Title</label>
<div class="input-holder">
<input type="text" />
</div>
</div>
<div class="textarea-container alert">
<label>Post</label>
<div class="textarea-holder">
<textarea></textarea>
</div>
</div>
here's my current haml markup:
.input-container
= f.label :title, 'Topic Title'
.input-holder
= f.text_field :title
.textarea-container
= f.label :body, 'Post'
.textarea-holder
= f.text_area(:body, :size => "60x10")
Now what would I need to do if I want the container divs to have the alert class when a field in my form is invalid?
I want to do the same thing but unfortunately haven't figured out a clean way to handle it.
You can override ActionView::Base.field_error_proc, but that doesn't help with the enclosing elements.
It can be done manually by checking errors on each field ('post.errors['body'].nil?') and outputting your alert class conditionally.
The next step could be extracting the logic into a view helper, and perhaps some further abstraction after that.
But it would still be nice to do this in a more automated, Rails-y fashion.
It might be best to use either the formtastic or simple_form gems which out of the box support highlighting an individual invalid field.
I'm almost certain they do this by changing the CSS class on the field or its container, which you could also hook into in your stylesheets.
I would like to use the same partial view for create, edit, and details views, to avoid duplicating the fieldset structure for an entity. Then, depending on which view renders the partial view, I would like to add a class of "read-only" to a div surrounding my fieldset and handle making the actual input fields read-only on the client, using css or jQuery, or whatever. How can I specify from my Razor view that I need this class added to the "item-details" div?
<div class="item-details">
<fieldset>
<legend>Product Details</legend>
#Html.HiddenFor(model => model.DetailItem.ProductId)
<div class="editor-label">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.DetailItem.Name)
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.DetailItem.Name)
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.DetailItem.Name)
</div>
<p>
<input type="submit" value="Save" />
</p>
</fieldset>
</div>
I would generally have a variable on the model that would indicate if your data is editable, and use it like:
<div class="item-details #(Model.IsReadOnly ? "read-only" : "")">
If you don't have it on the model however, you can use the ViewBag. In your parent view:
#{
ViewBag.IsModelReadOnly = true;
}
In your partial view:
<div class="item-details #(ViewBag.IsModelReadOnly ? "read-only" : "")">
Your html output for a readonly view would be
<div class="item-details read-only">
You can then access the div via jQuery and do what you need: $(".read-only")...
Why not just use
#Html.DisplayFor(model => model.[whatEver Property you are trying to show])
