YII Client side form validation error doesn't prevent form submit To get this behavior you just need to add 'clientOptions' => array('validateOnSubmit'=>true), to your configuration so it would look like this: $form=$this->beginWidget( 'CActiveForm', array( 'id'=>'member-form', 'enableAjaxValidation'=>false, 'enableClientValidation'=>true, 'clientOptions' => array('validateOnSubmit'=>true), ) );

Yii cgridview make custom drop down filters, Yii cgridview set row color based on a condition, Yii cgridview add time picker in filter, Yii cgridview add drop down in colum values Here is an example how you can make custom drop down filters in YII cgridview: $this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CGridView', array( 'id' => 'card-applications-grid', 'dataProvider' => $model->search(), 'filter' => $model, 'afterAjaxUpdate' => 'reinstallDatePicker', 'rowCssClassExpression'=>'($data->is_updated==1)?"application_updated":"application_not_updated"', 'columns' => array( array( 'name'=>'applicant_id', 'value'=>'$data->applicant_id', 'filter'=> CHtml::listData($model->findAll(), 'applicant_id', 'applicant_id') ...

Belows is how you can use CGridView  'rowCssClassExpression'  to change row color based on a column's value: $this -> widget ( 'zii.widgets.grid.CGridView' , array ( 'dataProvider' => $dataProvider , 'rowCssClassExpression' => '($data->column_name==0)?"new":"old"' , 'columns' => array ( ... ), )); You can also call a custom php function, and pass the $data variable to it. That function should return the class name for the given row :)

I am going to keep this short because I really hope that you are familiar with  jQueryUI's Sortable  class before starting this tutorial.

(Optional) Add the 'sortOrder' field to your Rules() function in your model Add the 'actionSort()' method to your controller to apply the sorting via ajax Add jQuery UI to your view that has the CGridView Setup the jQuery UI Code to work with the CGridView in question (Optional) Apply the sorting to your model's search() function if need be ...

This is how i get rid of magic quotes issues on my PHP projects. function array_map_r( $func, $arr ) { $newArr = array(); foreach( $arr as $key => $value ) { $newArr[ $key ] = ( is_array( $value ) ? array_map_r( $func, $value ) : ( is_array($func) ? call_user_func_array($func, $value) : $func( $value ) ) ); } return $newArr; } if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { // Yes? Strip the added slashes $_REQUEST = array_map_r('stripslashes', $_REQUEST); $_GET = array_map_r('stripslashes', $_GET); $_POST = array_map_r('stripslashes', $_POST); $_COOKIE = array_map_r('stripslashes', $_COOKIE); } else { $_REQUEST = array_map_r('addslashes', $_REQUEST); $_GET = array_map_r('addslashes', $_GET); $_POST = array_map_r('addslashes', $_POST); $_COOKIE = array_map_r('addslashes', $_COOKIE); }
