Zend File Upload and Element Decorators

Question

I have the problem, that the following Zend Form throws an error. The problem is the \"file\"-element and using setElementDecorators.

    class Products_AddF         


        

Answer 1

The File element requires it's own decorator - Zend_Form_Decorator_File.

$this->setElementDecorators(array(
      'File',
      'Errors',
      array(array('data' => 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' => 'td')),
      array('Label', array('tag' => 'th')),
      array(array('row' => 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' => 'tr'))
));

[edit]

Have just noticed that you are also using other form elements.

After your original code, add:

$this->getElement('Excel')->setDecorators(
    array(
        'File',
        'Errors',
        array(array('data' => 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' => 'td')),
        array('Label', array('tag' => 'th')),
        array(array('row' => 'HtmlTag'), array('tag' => 'tr'))
    )
);

That way, ViewHelper is added to all other elements, and for your File element File is used instead.
