Hello,

Recently upgraded to the latest Yii 1.1.9 and wanted to share a little tweak that had to be made in order for the custom range input field to work...

In protected/components/RangeInputField.php there's

class RangeInputField extends CInputWidget
{
	public $attributeFrom;
	public $attributeTo;
	public $nameFrom;
	public $nameTo;
	public $valueFrom;
	public $valueTo;
	
	function run()
	{
		if($this->hasModel())
		{
			echo CHtml::activeTextField($this->model, $this->attributeFrom);
			echo ' → ';
			echo CHtml::activeTextField($this->model, $this->attributeTo);
		}
		else {
			echo CHtml::textField($this->nameFrom, $this->valueFrom);
			echo ' → ';
			echo CHtml::textField($this->nameTo, $this->valueTo);
		}
	}
}

the check if($this->hasModel()) uses CInputWidget::hasModel which contains

return $this->model instanceof CModel && $this->attribute!==null;

but we lack the field $attribute in RangeInputField and the check fails, so replacing

if(this->hasModel)

with

if($this->model instanceof CModel)

makes the code to work as intended... Hope this helps.

I find the book very useful and well arranged so far. Thanks a lot Макаров

Maybe not need to change the Framework, but append follow code in run() but before if($this->hasModel()):

if($this->attributeFrom && $this->attributeTo) {
            $this->attribute = TRUE;
}

or?
