[TYPO3-english] programming BE: module with fileupload and RTE

[Richard Davies]

Hi Christian,

Are you simply talking about editing records in the backend, or
specifically editing records within your own backend module?
In the past I've needed to link to records from a custom BE module. You use
the function editOnClick from t3lib_befunc and include the returned value
in the a tag you want to link. If you are unsure you can create or edit a
record yourself and open it in a new window to see what the url is to get
to that type of record. When the user exits the record (either by pressing
the x exit, or save and exit) they are returned to the BE module they were
linked from. Heres some code:

> func editfeusers($uid){
>
$table = 'fe_users';
>
$params = '&edit['.$table.']['.$uid.']=edit';
>
return 'onclick="'.t3lib_befunc::editOnClick($params).'"';
>
}
>


func createfeusers(){
>
$storage_pid = 5;
>
$table = 'fe_users';
>
$params = '&edit['.$table.']['.$storage_pid.']=new';
>
...
>
}
>

There isn't any documentation past that that I could find, so if you want
to do anything complex heres a couple of examples:
Changing the values of some of the fields/setting default values for the
fields

> $fieldname = 'first_name';
>
$field_value = 'Jerry';
>
$params =
> '&edit['.$table.']['.$storage_pid.']=new&overrideVals['.$table.']['.$fieldname.']='.$fieldvalue;
>
When the new record is open for editing, the field 'first_name' would
default to Jerry. You can chain these to override any number of fields e.g.
&overrideVals[table][field1]&overrideVals[table][field2]. It will
automatically hide the fields so the user can't edit them.

Only showing certain fields:

>  $fieldname = 'first_name';
> $field_value = 'Jerry';
>
$params =
> '&edit['.$table.']['.$storage_pid.']=new&overrideVals['.$table.']['.$fieldname.']='.$fieldvalue.'&columnsOnly=first_name,hidden,last_name';

This would open a new record and only show the fields 'hidden' and
'last_name' to the user.
