I wana create a front-end joomla component and this is my first experience.
here is important things:
1-component/controller.php
class TestController extends JControllerLegacy
{
public function display($cachable = false, $urlparams = false)
{
$view= JFactory::getApplication()->input->getCmd('view','items');
JFactory::getApplication()->input->set('view', $view);
parent::display($cachable, $urlparams);
}
}
2: com_test/model/items.php
<?php
defined('_JEXEC') or die();
jimport( 'joomla.application.component.modellist' );
class TestModelItems extends JModelList
{
public function __construct($config = array())
{
if (empty($config['filter_fields']))
$config['filter_fields'] = array('id', 'title', 'catid');
parent::__construct($config);
}
function getListQuery()
{
$db = JFactory::getDBO();
$query = $db->getQuery(true);
$query->select(...)
return $query;
}
}
I can print the query result on default.php on view folder! but I wana another thing.
I have a form like this in the front page of my site in a custom module:
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="text" name="wordsearch" value="search">
.
.
<input type="submit" />
</form>
Now!
I do not know how can I send this form (with post method) to getListQuery() function in model folder...how can do it?
i wana when sb click submit form, the component filter query sql according to values of form and then show new result to user!
i googled for hourse but no chance to solve. thanks for your help.
