I know that you can call a cms block directly from a template file using the following:
<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('cms/block')->setBlockId('footer_links')->toHtml() ?>
Is there some way to do this with widget instances?
In your template:
<?php
$filter = Mage::getModel('widget/template_filter');
echo $filter->filter('{{widget type="cms/widget_page_link" template="cms/widget/link/link_block.phtml" page_id="2"}}');
?>
Andrew missed toHtml() function at the end:
<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('cms/widget_page_link')->setTemplate('cms/widget/link/link_block.phtml')->setPageId(2)->toHtml(); ?>
To know the correct parameters "type", "template" and more, you can use the "Insert widget" button on the graphical editor in a block/page template, then you click the show/hide editor and you get the code
The answer above may work, but the same thing can be achieved by loading the widget as you would a static block and passing in the custom parameters using the magic setters like this:
<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('cms/widget_page_link')->setTemplate('cms/widget/link/link_block.phtml')->setPageId(2); ?>

Is there any way I could strip html out of this?
<?php echo $this->form->renderField('monday'); ?>
In the back end theres a selection where you pick options that show up in a schedule but they are showing up as html and I need them to show up as plain text for the selection.
you can use php strip_tags function
<?php echo strip_tags($this->form->renderField('monday')); ?>
http://php.net/manual/en/function.strip-tags.php.
If you wanna keep some tags, look at the section allowable_tags
You should know that select and option are also html tags and will be removed if you use strip_tags. So you can allow those tags. You can modify your code like this
<?php $field = strip_tags(($this->form->renderField('monday')),'<select><option>');
echo $field;
?>
How do you perform translation with an embedded link_to function in the template using Symfony 1.4?
Example:
Please click <php echo link_to('here', sfConfig::get('app_url') ?> for additional info.
I usually do something like this:
echo __("Please click "%placeholder%", array("%placeholder%" => link_to(__("here"), sfConfig::get('app_url'))))
You can also use:
Please click <?php echo __('here') ?> for additional info
Or you can use:
Please click <?php echo link_to(__('here'), sfConfig::get('app_url') ); ?>
I want to pass some arguments from a view to the cportlet widgets called by this view, but it seems doesn't work when I do it like this:
<?php
$this->beginWidget('zii.widgets.CPortlet');
$this->widget('ProductsBrowser',
array('params'=>$params));
$this->endWidget(); ?>
How can I accomplish it succesfully? Please help me! Thanks!!
Do You read documentation?
http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/extension.use#widget this just should work.
The Correct way is as shown
<?php $this->beginWidget('zii.widgets.CPortlet', array(
'params'=>$params)); ?>
//body content
<?php $this->endWidget(); ?>
I have a js in a folder js. I call the file in the header.
I have the next code in my view:
<?php echo form_dropdown('mydropdown',$options) ?>
I need to pass the paramether $js, could you help me with the syntax?
$js = 'id="shirts" onChange="display(this,\'id1\',\'id2\');"';
<?php echo form_dropdown('mydropdown',$options, $js) ?>
When I see the source code of my dropdown I can't see the id="shirts", then I believe that the function javascript is not recognized.
What's my error. My codeigniter version is 2.0.
Thanks.
javascript should be the fourth parameter to this call. So add a null parameter in the third (which is for the selected value of the dropdown):
<?php echo form_dropdown('mydropdown',$options, null, $js) ?>

I'd like to internationalize the strings of my view.yml, I can't find how to do this.
I have a solution that is bad, in my opinion:
metas:
title: <?php echo sfContext::getInstance()->getI18n()->__('TITLE'); ?>
I'd like to find a way to do it without calling "sfConfig::getInstance()". Is it possible?
Never ever use sfContext for I18n in Configuration-Files! In such a case use the setTitle function in the View (not the controller)
<?php $sf_response->setTitle(__('TITLE'));?>
Since include_title() does not translate what it finds in view.yml, I made this very simple function in my custom helper:
function include_translated_title($context)
{
$title = $context->getI18N()->__($context->getResponse()->getTitle());
echo content_tag('title', $title)."\n";
}
Then I use it in my layout.php files:
<head>
<?php include_http_metas() ?>
<?php include_metas() ?>
<?php include_translated_title($sf_context) ?>
This way, I can use translation keys in my view.yml
You can do this in your action instead:
$this->getResponse()->setTitle(sfContext::getInstance()->getI18n()->__('TITLE'));
I dont think there's a way around using sfContext. You might be able to do something like this by getting rid of the default <?php include_title() ?> in your layout/view and the using the template i18n format to internationalise it:
<title><?php echo __('TITLE') ?></title>
