I whish to have a 'cancel' button on a Horde_Form.
I added a button and the PHP page evaluates the name of the submitbutton.
If it is the wrong one (i. e. _("cancel")), the form entries are discarded
an processing stops. However, the page is not updated to the old values,
instead the edited (unprocessed) values still show up.
I was wondering if
* there is something like a reset method for the form (yes, I looked in the
docs, but not all methods are extensively documented)
* I can trigger the 'reset' function for which there is a default button
* I need to keep a copy of the form variables object for reset purposes
or
* there is a different mechanism for supporting a cancel button
It seems like a basic thing so there surely is a recommended way of doing
it.
Kind regards
Sebastian
