Hi belayetsumon,

By reading your post topic, which one is right: "Zend From" or "Zend Form"? ;)

It's Zend Form I think..

Ok here is my example form using Zend Form below :

First, We need a class and put it in our library

Make a file and give it a name: "Config.php"

<?php

/*

class Core_Form_Config extends Zend_Form {
	
	public function __construct() 
	{
	    // appname textfield
        $app_name = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('app_name');
        $app_name->addFilter('StringTrim')->setRequired(true)->setLabel('Application Name');

        // admin email textfield
        $admin_email = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('admin_email');
        $admin_email->addFilter('StringTrim')->setRequired(true)->setLabel('Admin Email');
        
        // CMS background color
        $cms_bgcolor = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('cms_bgcolor');
        $cms_bgcolor->addFilter('StringTrim')->setRequired(true)->setLabel('CMS Background Color');
        
        // CMS table header background color
        $cms_tableheader_bgcolor = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('cms_tableheader_bgcolor');
        $cms_tableheader_bgcolor->addFilter('StringTrim')->setRequired(true)->setLabel('CMS Table Header BgColor');
        
        // CMS table header font color
        $cms_tableheader_fontcolor = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('cms_tableheader_fontcolor');
        $cms_tableheader_fontcolor->addFilter('StringTrim')->setRequired(true)->setLabel('CMS Table Header Font Color');
        
        // the submit button
        $submit = new Zend_Form_Element_Submit('submit');
        $submit->setValue('Save Category');        
        
        $this->addElements ( array ($app_name, $admin_email,$cms_bgcolor,
        	$cms_tableheader_bgcolor,$cms_tableheader_fontcolor,$submit ) );
		$this->addDisplayGroup ( array ('app_name','admin_email','cms_bgcolor',
			'cms_tableheader_bgcolor','cms_tableheader_fontcolor','submit' ), 
			'zend_form',array('style'=>'width:500px'));
		
		$this->addDecorator ( 'FormElements' )->addDecorator ( 'Form' );
	}
	
}

Based on the "Class" name above, you should know where you should put the file on the root, right? Core - Config - Form

Second, okay next...and here is what we have in our "Controller" below :

Give it a name: "ConfigController.php"

<?php
class Cms_ConfigController extends Core_Controller_Cms
/*
 * Author: RL Fantasy Design Studio - http://www.RLFantasy.com
 * Date: 27th April 2009
 * This config is for in the admin page, so we give a name CMS for this class.
 */
{
	/**
	 * The default action - show the home page
	 */
	public function indexAction() 
    {
       $configModel = new ConfigModel();
		if($this->_request->isPost())
		{
			$params = Core_Helper_Filter::filterform ( $this->_getAllParams () );
			$configModel->update(array('config_value'=>$params['app_name']),"config_key='app_name'");
			$configModel->update(array('config_value'=>$params['admin_email']),"config_key='admin_email'");
			$configModel->update(array('config_value'=>$params['cms_bgcolor']),"config_key='cms_bgcolor'");
			$configModel->update(array('config_value'=>$params['cms_tableheader_bgcolor']),"config_key='cms_tableheader_bgcolor'");
			$configModel->update(array('config_value'=>$params['cms_tableheader_fontcolor']),"config_key='cms_tableheader_fontcolor'");
		}
		
		$arr_config = $configModel->getConfigData();
		$configs = array();
		foreach ($arr_config as $config)
			$configs[$config['config_key']] = $config['config_value'];
		
		$form = new Core_Form_Config();
		$form->getElement('app_name')->setValue($configs['app_name']);
		$form->getElement('admin_email')->setValue($configs['admin_email']);
		$form->getElement('cms_bgcolor')->setValue($configs['cms_bgcolor']);
		$form->getElement('cms_tableheader_bgcolor')->setValue($configs['cms_tableheader_bgcolor']);
		$form->getElement('cms_tableheader_fontcolor')->setValue($configs['cms_tableheader_fontcolor']);
		$this->view->form = $form;
		
		$this->setTitle('Config');
    }
}

Third (final), here is what we have in the "Action" below :

Create file and give it a name: "index.phtml", as the controller above is just only have a public function indexAction(), then put the file in folder "config" - I think you must know it already...ok let's forward, take a look what we have in the "Action" :

<?php echo $this->form?>

Wow!! Ain't that too short?? Just one line??? The answer is "YES" :twisted: - That's why I love Zend Framework so much...yes so much !!!
