Adding a Percentage Field to Forms

Overview

In this tutorial, we'll cover how to add a percentage field to your forms using a method from your configuration object, $objConfig->percentage('field_name', 'field_label', $required = 0);. This method allows you to integrate percentage inputs seamlessly into your application forms.

This method adds a  percentage  input field to your form, taking three parameters:

• field_name: The name attribute for the  percentage  input.
• field_label: The label that will be displayed alongside the  percentage  input.
• $required: An optional parameter (default is 0) that specifies whether the  percentage  input is required (1) or not (0).

Here's a sample code to include a percentage field to your form;

 // Adding a percentage field
$objConfig->percentage('field_name', 'field_label', $required = 0);

Adjust the parameters (field_name, field_label, and $required) as per your specific requirements.

Configuration in Your Application

For the configuration to work properly, it's important to include the 'field_name' amongst the addFields and editFields. This ensures that the percentage  fields are correctly initialized and integrated into your form. This example shows how to configure the add and edit fields.

// Adding your percentage field to the add and edit forms
$objConfig->addFields(array('field_name'));
$objConfig->editFields(array('field_name'));

Conclusion

By following these steps, you can easily integrate percentage fields into your forms using $objConfig->percentage('field_name', 'field_label', $required = 0);. This method provides flexibility in configuring percentage inputs according to your application's needs.
