Pre filled form for add new values on the fly

Chris, could you post some screenshots to better illustrate your request?

Hello,
to make it clear:
Table contains the fields:
monday, monday_hours, tuesday, tuesday_hours, wednesday, wednesday_hours, etc...
example data entry:
mike, 5, mike, 6, jane, 1, etc...
So now I have in monday_hours, tuesday_hours etc. a lockup wizard with the add new values on the fly function, because the table hours contains later the name, which is in monday or tuesday etc., the value which is in monday_hours, tuesday_hours etc. and some other values, like the date which I save with the now() function.
So the only think what I need now:
If someone click on the add link on the field: tuesday_hours, I have to pre-fill the name from the field tuesday.

This is working already with monday (session variables), but not with other days, because I am locking for an indicator where I know: Ok so the user just clicked on the tuesday_hours add link and not on the monday_hours add link.
Regards,

Chris

Hello Christian,
do you have an idea, what could be the indicator?

Hello,
no one has an idea?

Chris,
you need to rephrase your question or better yet provide a couple of screenshot that would explain what you trying to build.

ok I rephrase, because screenshots would be German and maybe not understandable.
There is a list. On this list I activated inline edit.

If the user hit edit on an entry in the list there are 7 different "add on the fly" fields (lockup wizard or another table)

The only thing what I want to know: How can I know in the php coding, which of the 7 "add on the fly" fields the user clicked on?

There must something like a id or value where I can ask for.

no on has an idea?

I guess it is super simple but now one used the add on the fly function and wanted to know which of the different add on the fly fields the user clicked on to do something on the time of clicking?

Sorry, it just doesn't make much sense to me being explained this way.

Ok, here is your own example:
http://xlinesoft.com/livedemo/phprunner/livedemo3/orders_edit.php?editid1=10248
There you have Add new at the field Customer

So imagine there is also a Add new at the field Employee
So, how can I know, wheather the user click on the Add new next of the Customer field or next of the Employee if I want to know this because I need this in a event?
And this is exactly what I explained already.
There is a field monday and monday hours , thuesday and tuesday hours and so on. And I just want to know how I know wheather the user click the add new on the monday hours or tuesday hours.
By the way: I cannot add screenshots, there comes a message: You are not allowed to use that image extension on this board, but you can see it here: http://imm.io/K0RE

In the "Javascript onload" event, enter the following code:

Replace FIRSTFIELDNAME and SECONDFIELDNAME with the real names of your fields (the name of the fields near the "Add new" link).

Replace FIRSTFIELDNAME and SECONDFIELDNAME with the real names of your fields (the name of the fields near the "Add new" link).

Thanks for the answer.
I change your example to this one.

But the session variable is not filled.

I am not sure how to combine PHP and Javascript:
$("a[id^='addnew_value_monday_hours']").click(function(e){
$_SESSION["monday_hours"] = 'X';
});
$("a[id^='addnew_value_tuesday_hours']").click(function(e){
$_SESSION["tuesday_hours"] = 'X';
});

Hello,
have anybody an idea how to fill a session variable in the coding example?

Chris

In the Javascript code you can't add php statements. You need an ajax call to set a session var. You can find more info here: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/

Is there no easy way just to set in a session variable a 'X' if the user click on the "add new" (on the fly)?

In this ajax call (I never used something like this):

how is the coding to say: $_SESSION["tuesday_hours"] = 'X';?
I have to set something like an indicator, since I have to ask for in the add form.

Hello,
I have no idea how to set the session variable, depending on the "add new values" click.

Javascript on load seems not to work.

Is there another possibility?

In the Javascript code you can't add php statements. You need an ajax call to set a session var. You can find more info here: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/
You need to create a new PHP file outside of PHPRunner and execute an AJAX request to this file. In this PHP file you can set the session variable.
