Question

In my application, the user hsa to give a date by only selecting a month and a year in two dropdown lists. How can I achieve that?

Here is what I\'ve tried so far :

Answer 1

I working on a custom form type which would allow to solve such problem. The solution is based on what @oleg-andreyev proposed. The logic wrapped to a form type.

Usage:

add('exp_date', 'payum_credit_card_expiration_date');

The form type code:

vars['value'])) {
                $view['day']->vars['value'] = $view['day']->vars['choices'][0]->value;
            }

            $style = 'display:none';
            if (false == empty($view['day']->vars['attr']['style'])) {
                $style = $view['day']->vars['attr']['style'].'; '.$style;
            }

            $view['day']->vars['attr']['style'] = $style;
        }
    }

    public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
    {
        $resolver->replaceDefaults(array(
            'years' => range(date('Y'), date('Y') + 9)
        ));
    }

    public function getParent()
    {
        return 'date';
    }

    public function getName()
    {
        return 'payum_credit_card_expiration_date';
    }
}

You can copy\paste it or register payum bundle and use this type from (will be available there in next major release).
