Set default value for form fields from view option 09 Oct 2014 01:02 #12684

What I want to accomplish is that I have a field defined in my layout.xml file, and when creating a new record certain form values should be set from the default defined when creating a menu item to the view.

So in my edit.xml file for the volunteerapplication layout I have which allows me to select a specific event when creating a menu item to the application.
			<field name="event"
					type="modal_event"
					label="Select Event"
					required="false"
					default=""
					description="Select Event"/>


How do I set the default form field values using this information?

Real time saver and great Component Builder tool ! I have been developing with J-Cook Pro Component Builder for several months now and can say with all honesty that this product/service is second to none. The product is feature rich and is being improved and added to all the time. Do yourself a favor if you need to build a Joomla! Component then you can do no wrong in trying the product. You will save on time and effort while being able to deliver your project on time. J-Cook pro does the hard work for you you then have the freedom to fully customise the end result for your own needs.
