This article describes the example of yii's method of removing asterisks in required items. Share it with everyone for your reference, the details are as follows:
How to remove the asterisks in required fields?
Let’s first analyze the code implementation:
public function labelEx($model,$attribute,$htmlOptions=array()) { return CHtml::activeLabelEx($model,$attribute,$htmlOptions); } public static function activeLabelEx($model,$attribute,$htmlOptions=array()) { $realAttribute=$attribute; self::resolveName($model,$attribute); // strip off square brackets if any $htmlOptions['required']=$model->isAttributeRequired($attribute); return self::activeLabel($model,$realAttribute,$htmlOptions); }
When the attribute is required, it will render additional CSS class tags. Specifically, it calls CModel::isAttributeRequired to determine whether the attribute is required. If so, it will add a CSS class CHtml::requiredCss (public static $requiredCss='required';) to the label, with CHtml::beforeRequiredLabel (public static $beforeRequiredLabel='';) and CHtml::afterRequiredLabel (public static $afterRequiredLabel='*';) to decorate the label.
public function isAttributeRequired($attribute) { foreach($this->getValidators($attribute) as $validator) { if($validator instanceof CRequiredValidator) return true; } return false; }
So if you want to remove the asterisk or change it to something else, you can directly redefine CHtml::requiredCss, CHtml::beforeRequiredLabel, and CHtml::afterRequiredLabel in the view
Just do this without showing the asterisk
<?php CHtml::$afterRequiredLabel = '';?> <?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'email'); ?>
I hope this article will be helpful to everyone’s PHP program design based on the Yii framework.
