Passive Form Generation in CodeIgniter; and using CodeIgniter with Oracle

December 03rd, 2007

I stumbled across two noteworthy CodeIgniter blog posts today when reading the forums today, that I wanted to share.

  • Favio wrote Forms in CodeIgniter Views.  Essentially, what they’ve done is created a controller that takes the data you feed it (as a csv via a textarea) and generates all the validiation rules for you, as well as the forms.  Looks very promising, and is a clever solution.
  • Jonathan Abbett posted instructions on how he uses Oracle with PHP and CodeIgniter.  Its well written, step by step, and hopefully will be useful for you.

There’s a lot of exciting things happening in the CI community recently - its hard to keep up with everything.

Thanks for the nod. Now that a few of us users are actually kicking the tires on this Oracle functionality, could someone integrate a fix to this pretty nasty bug that’s come up at least four times in the forums?

Thanks!

Hm, I like the heart of Favio’s idea, but there is definitely a smarter way to integrate it into CI.  Might mention it to Jones along with a couple thoughts.
