Question about ListBox

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Okay. My first project with yii. And my first question in the forum :rolleyes:

I have a model ‘customer’ and model ‘products’. Sure, a customer can have many products. In ‘products’ are only product id and product description. In ‘customer’ I have a field also named ‘products’.The tables have no relations, I try to keep it pretty simple.

protected/views/customer/_form.php




<div class="form">

<?php $form=$this->beginWidget('CActiveForm', array(

        'id'=>'customer-form',

        'enableAjaxValidation'=>false,

));?>

        <div class="row">

                <?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'products'); ?>

                <?php echo $form->ListBox($model,'products',CHtml::listData($pmodel,'product','description'),array('multiple'=>1)); ?>

                <?php echo $form->error($model,'products'); ?>

        </div>

So, I see the product description in the list box

The controller I have modified with:




        public function actionCreate()

        {

                $model=new Customer;


                  if(isset($_POST['Customer']))

                {

                        $model->attributes=$_POST['Customer'];

                        $m = implode(",", $model->products);

                        $model->products = '';

                        $model->products = $m;

                        if($model->save())

                                $this->redirect(array('view','id'=>$model->id));

                }

This save the product id in the customer table.

Now I will update the customer. ListBox shows the available products from the product table but not the saved items for this customer.

How can I get it? Or how can we do better? ???

thanks
