Working with table using jQuery | Narendra

To add a new row at the end of the table, use the following code,

1. $(‘#table_id >  tbody:last’).append(‘
   ….
   ’);  

Here, table_id is an id of your table.

You can also append an html to the table like,

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?

1. var tr_html = “
   Hello  World
   ”;  
2.   
3. $(‘#table_id > tbody:last’).append(tr_html);  

Remove all rows from table,

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?

1. $('#myTable').find('tr').remove();  

You can also delete a particular row from the table using the id of row.

1. $(‘#row_id’).remove();  

To get last row of the table,

1. $(‘#table_id tr:last’);  

Get total rows in table,

Use a selector that will select all the rows and take the length.

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?

1. var rowCount = $('#table_id tr').length;  

If you use or in your table, you’ll have to use the following syntax or you’ll get a incorrect value:

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?

1. var rowCount = $('#myTable >tbody >tr').length;

Use virtuals forms with Symfony2

Use virtuals forms with Symfony2

We have 2 entities. A Company and a Customer:

namespace ...;

class Company
{
    private $name;
    private $website;

    private $address;
    private $zipcode;
    private $city;
    private $country;

    // Some nice getters / setters here.
}

namespace ...;

class Customer
{
    private $firstName;
    private $lastName;

    private $address;
    private $zipcode;
    private $city;
    private $country;

    // Some nice getters / setters here.
}

Like you can see, both of our entities have these fields: address, zipcode, city, country.

Now, we want to build 2 forms. One for create/update a Company and the second to create/update a Customer.

Of course, we have only two entities which have to contains some location informations... for now! Maybe later, some entities will have this fields. So, we have to find a solution to not duplicate our code!

First, we create very simple CompanyType and CustomerType:

namespace ...;

use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilder;

class CompanyType extends AbstractType
{
    public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder
            ->add('name', 'text')
            ->add('website', 'text')
        ;
    }

    public function getDefaultOptions(array $options)
    {
        return array(
            'data_class' => '...\Company',
        );
    }

    public function getName()
    {
        return 'company';
    }
}

namespace ...;

use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilder;

class CustomerType extends AbstractType
{
    public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder
            ->add('firstName', 'text')
            ->add('lastName', 'text')
        ;
    }

    public function getDefaultOptions(array $options)
    {
        return array(
            'data_class' => '...\Customer',
        );
    }

    public function getName()
    {
        return 'customer';
    }
}

Definitely nothing complicated here.

Now, we have to deal with our four duplicated fields... Here is a (simple) location FormType:

namespace ...;

use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilder;

class LocationType extends AbstractType
{
    public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder
            ->add('address', 'textarea')
            ->add('zipcode', 'string')
            ->add('city', 'string')
            ->add('country', 'text')
        ;
    }

    public function getDefaultOptions(array $options)
    {
        return array(
            'virtual' => true
        );
}

    public function getName()
    {
        return 'location';
    }
}

We can't specify a data_class option in this FormType because, we don't have a Location Entity.
We don't have a location field in our entity so we can't directly link our LocationType.
Of course, we absolutely want to have a dedicated FormType to deal with location (remember, DRY!)

There is a solution!

We can set the option 'virtual' => true in the getDefaultOptions method of our LocationType and directly start use it in our 2 first types.

Look at the result:

// CompanyType

public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
    $builder->add('foo', new LocationType());
}

// CustomerType

public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
    $builder->add('bar', new LocationType());
}

With the virtual option set to false (default behavior), the Form Component expect a Foo (or Bar) object or array which contains our four location fields. Of course, we don't have this object/array in our entities and we don't want it!

With the virtual option set to true, the Form Component skip our Foo (or Bar) object or array. So, it directly access to our 4 location fields which are in the parent entity!

(One more time, thank to Alexandre Salomé for the tips)
