Zend_Form using subforms getValues() problem

Question

I am building a form in Zend Framework 1.9 using subforms as well as Zend_JQuery being enabled on those forms. The form itself is fine and all the error checking etc is working

Answer 1

I think that perhaps I must have been misunderstanding the way that the subforms work in Zend, and the code below helps me achieve what I wanted. None of my elements share names across subforms, but I guess this is why Zend_Form works this way.

In my controller I now have:

if($request->isPost()) {
  if ($form->isValid($request->getPost()) {
    $all_form_details = array();
    foreach ($form->getSubForms() as $subform) {
      $all_form_details = array_merge($all_form_details, $subform->getValues());
    }
    // Now I have one nice and tidy array to pass to my model. I know this
    // could also be seen as model logic for a skinnier controller, but
    // this is just to demonstrate it working.
    print_r($all_form_details);
  }
}
