choosing "new" with an item selected in list2 [message #1126]

I am running into a problem when the user has an entry in a list2 selected and then they choose "new". This selected entry overwrites the parent selection and causes problems in the add2 screen. What's the best way to solve this? I see in x_person_addr::_cm_getInitialData() where it looks like you correct this problem.

Here is a better fix - update the childForm() function inside 'include.session.inc' from this:

Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]

        if (isset($post['select'])) {
            // convert selection into SQL where format
            $pkey_array = $dbobject->getPkeyArray(null, $task_array);
            $selection = selection2where($pkey_array, $post['select']);
        } elseif (count($object_array) == 1 AND $pattern_id != 'LIST1') {

to this:

Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]

        if (isset($post['select'])) {
            if ($pattern_id == 'LIST2' AND $task_array['pattern_id'] == 'ADD2') {
                // for LIST2->ADD2 any selection must be ignored
            	$selection = null;
            } else {
                // convert selection into SQL where format
                $pkey_array = $dbobject->getPkeyArray(null, $task_array);
                $selection = selection2where($pkey_array, $post['select']);
            } // if
        } elseif (count($object_array) == 1 AND $pattern_id != 'LIST1') {

thanks.

I found the same problem with list3, multi2, multi3 and added the following:
OR ($pattern_id == 'MULTI3' AND $task_array['pattern_id'] == 'ADD2')
OR ($pattern_id == 'MULTI2' AND $task_array['pattern_id'] == 'ADD2')
OR ($pattern_id == 'LIST3' AND $task_array['pattern_id'] == 'ADD2')

I'm not able to test it with any other patterns

Upon reflection I have decided to remove that change from the childform() fuction and modify file 'std.add2.inc' so that it reads as follows:

Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]

if (!empty($selection) AND !isset($return_from)) {
    if (empty($where)) {
    	// only use $selection if $where is empty
        $where = $selection;
    } // if
    $selection = null;
} // if

This means that regardless of the calling form, $selection will only be used if $where is empty. I think this should cover all eventualities.
