In Drupal 6, AHAH powered forms are made easy. Easy in a sense that it is built in using the #ahah property. With the AHAH powered forms, it allows you to manipulate form elements on the fly without using a single line of Javascript code. However, as easy at it sounds, it is really time consuming and painful to use since you have to write callbacks for each AHAH enabled form element. Think about maintaining that code! Don't worry, AHAH Helper is here to alleviate the pain. Basically, this module simplifies the use of #ahah property.

Whenever I'm creating an AHAH form in Drupal I use the AHAH helper module. It just makes the process so much simpler and cleaner so I can worry about the form logic and not the AHAH part.

The only "problem" I've had so far is if you embed a view in the form markup and that view has a pager, the pager links don't work because they are linked to the ahah_helper URL instead of the original $_GET['q'].

I will be giving a talk about creating AHAH forms in Santa Cruz soon and will be using AHAH Helper in the presentation. I may end up doing the same one at DrupalCon SF as well.

Hello masters :)

I hope someone from you can help me a little bit.

I have a multistep form with AHAH enhanced elements (with AHAH Helper). All runs fine.

Now I have to insert a new form element (a select) with AHAH. This is no problem, I render the new form element with drupal_render in the form definition directly in the output of the wrapper-div and build the form element before.

This new element have AHAH functionality too and THIS doesn't function. There is no reaction when I click in the select.

I have a form which returns results with AHAH. I have a designer that wants to rebuild the form completely with Javascript for those who have it. When the user clicks of something, the form needs to submit. The problem is that we can't use document.formname.submit(). If we submit(), we don't get the pretty AHAH functionality. I am writing a module now that includes script that tries to do this. Does anyone know how to give any DOM element the ability to submit an AHAH request on click?

I notice that all my AHAH forms (in the admin) don't work all of a sudden after I updated Drupal to 6.24 and got the new jQuery update. When I had a fresh install before I started building this site, everything was working nicely. Now, after develing and adding modules, all AHAH forms in the admin decided to screw up.

Now that I'm building a form with FAPI and want it to interact with AHAH via AHAH_helper, what happens is that the AHAH hands mid-validation. I can see that the POST is being sent, but after that nothing happens.

I'm trying to work out a form using AHAH to chain select items. So far every thing seems to work well when javascript is enabled (obviously) but I can't seem to get things to work when javascript is disabled.

Every time I submit the form normally, I lose the ability to access $form_submit. The values from $_POST populate the correct fields but I can't do anything with them. As soon as I remove the AHAH stuff, everything works once more (and I can debug and view the content of $form_state in my form() function as usual.

I'm using AHAH to change an element when the desired event occurs. After much reading posts here on the forum and coming to a good understanding of how AHAH is supposed to work, this portion is working great. Thanks to the folks who posted tutorials and examples.

I'm curious if it's possible to chain AHAH calls? For example, suppose I have two elements on a page, one is an image of a widget, and the other is text that describes what the image is. Both reside in their own .

Hi everybody,

I've been searching and searching for almost 20 hours now without any result...

I have a website containing a Ctools form wizard with 3 steps. In one of the steps I need to replace 2 fields (language + extra field, in separate fieldsets), based on an AHAH enabled country-dropdown.

Hello there,

I was trying to build a form with the feature of "ahah".

Requirement:
I want to developed the dependable drop down menu upto three level.

Menu: 1 (with Ahah) -> Menu: 2(with ahah) -> Menu 3 (result)

Now once i tried to develop the code, i can find the drop down (menu 2) with use of ahah.

Now when i use the same ahah form element for the menu: 2 (the ahah form element is build on the Menu 1 return code), its not working.

Do anybody have such developed code or reference of such code ?

Kindly do needful.
