field types...

[Specht]

Hey Steevo,

is it possible to have a field-typ for eMail and Weblink
when I'm using Typ simple field then I can't use it as Link, whe I use it as Text its to big and I have to create each link manually...

thanks in advance

I think that the interest in to have link on email and weblink.

If that's it, i would prefer to not add others field types, but i can do something : if you select a simple field and fill it with email address, i can recognize it and create link on it without specifying it's and email, and the same thing for weblinks. I think it's simpler.
What do you about that?

Yes, exactly and Yes I think it's better like you proposed.
If then the Jommla funktion to hide mailadresses for Spamrobots will also work, then it's more then perfect
thanks in advance

Hey Steevo,

I found a way for email / weblinks (string "www." required in the data)
and placed it within the ../item/view.html.php

This modification is able to recognize within a simple Line field
email-adresses, creates a mailto: link and using email-cloake to hide it for robots...
Weblinks will be recognized in a simple line field, if they are containing
"www." within the string, if required "http://" will be added and a hyperlink
created...

maybe a little bit quick and dirty solution as far as my php knowllege is verry basic...
you#ll find the modifications in function createFieldDescription line 248-275:

Code : Tout sélectionner

// champ simple ligne
		// function for check if data is email-adress
		if ( $type == '1' )
		{  if(!empty($this->item->$name_field) && JMailHelper::isEmailAddress($this->item->$name_field)) 
       {
				    $this->item->$name_field = JHTML::_('email.cloak', $this->item->$name_field);
				    return $this->item->$name_field;
			 } 
       else 
       {
				     // function to check if an url is an valid url
            if(!empty($this->item->$name_field) && preg_match("=www.=", $this->item->$name_field))
                  {$url = $this->item->$name_field;
                  $url = trim($url);
                  if (!preg_match("=://=", $url)) $url = "http://$url";
                  if (!preg_match('#^http\\:\\/\\/[a-z0-9\-]+\.([a-z0-9\-]+\.)?[a-z]+#i', $url)) {
                        return htmlspecialchars($this->item->$name_field, ENT_QUOTES);//return false;
                  } else {
                      $urllink = "<a href=\"$url\">$url</a>";
                    return $urllink ; //return true;
                  }
                                       
                  } 
            else 
            { return htmlspecialchars($this->item->$name_field, ENT_QUOTES);
            }		    
			 }
		}

to use the Mail-check it's also required to add line 13:

Code : Tout sélectionner

jimport('joomla.mail.helper'); // added to enable check simple text fields for email-adress

attached pls find the modified view.html.php

I hope this will help you a littlebit in the further development...

Hi,

I made a change in svn (rev. 54):
http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/collector/scmsvn/

but your version is cleaner with function JMailHelper::isEmailAddress() and JHTML::_('email.cloak',...);

I added an option to disable link display. So i'm going to melt both methods to be added in future release with others improvements.

Thank you for your help.

unfortunally all these entries are in french
and it's verry diffcult ( I think not only for me ) to find what I need...
I assume it would be not only for me an effort if you can make enties there in english...

So I need to wait for the next release - and until then I look how can improve
maybe issues they are described in the JoomlaCode Projed page

Ok, we'll try to write both english and french.
