SV: [Catalyst] CC::FormBuilder woes - I don't get it

[Peter Sørensen]

Hi,

I had the same problem a few months ago and was advised to change the 
stash_name from the default. So I have the following:

__PACKAGE__->config( name =>'YourApplicationName',
			   'Controller::FormBuilder' => {
					method_name => 'form',
					attr_name => 'Form',
					obj_name =>  'form',
					stash_name => 'fb',
				}
				.....

};

Then in the template: 

[% fb.field.<fieldname>.field %]


I haven't figured out why I had to change this name but try.

Emne: [Catalyst] CC::FormBuilder woes - I don't get it

My problem with FormBuilder and Template Toolkit :

[% form.render %]
works

[% FOREACH f IN form.fields %]
[% f.label %]
[% f.field %]
[% END %]
works
y.
[% form.field.<fieldname>.field %]
does not work

The same problem was signaled a year ago under de subject "CC::Formbuilder woes".
A solution was posted :

My problem : I just don't get it.
the default for stash_name is formbuilder.  Does this mean that [% formbuilder.field.<fieldname>.field %] ought to work ?  It doesn't.
Or else, what should I override it with ?  with 'form' ?  No luck either.

Maybe someone more knowledgeable than me might be able to help me.
