Hi!
I would like your help to understand if this is possible in Yii 1.1.x:
I have a table that describes fields on forms.
Something like:
|formid|field|controltype|validationrule|optionvalues|defaultvalues|etc…
The idea would be to describe all forms on a table and then have them generated on the fly, by request.
This is needed to generate workflow tasks for a customer, where a task may have one or more fields, of different types.
Customer configures tasks, so it’s not possible for me to know ex-ante what fields will be on each form.
I could give my customer the ability to generate form definitions when creating tasks. Ex: formid=1 with, let’s say, 3 textboxes, 2 dropdowlists and a checkbox, all of this configured in one single table. Then formid=2 could have 1 textbox and 2 dropdownlists, etc…
My software would read definitions from the table and generate fields accordingly on a generic form.
Is this possible? Or just a stupid thought? If possible, what approach would you recommend?
Thank you all.
