Re: com_connect - form and contact mailer

You actually can use double colons with core tags too:

Lol. Yeah, more regex to figure.

Actually, though, I almost think the new double-colon tags should be the new core suite. They take so much visual repetition out of markup. It’s nice.

Aye, but it doesn’t work universally; only if the tag has an underscore. So you still need <txp:yield /> and <txp:evaluate /> and <txp:body />, for example, but can use <file::download_list> and <meta::description /> which is funner.

Re: com_connect - form and contact mailer

What about <t::yield>, <t::body>, etc. ;)

Possibly, if you want to save one character’s typing :)

I recall the reason we chose double colon in the first place is so there’s less likelihood of a clash with namespaced values like <smd:something>, which are valid in XML. For consistency, we could look into a double colon for txp native tags too. Not sure what impact that would have on the parser. Oleg would be able to comment.

Ahem.. it’s there since txp 4.6 (2016) :-)

No extra impact, whatever new scheme (e.g. <body:: /> or even <body: />) we allow. The price of the double colon syntax will mainly remain the difference between strpos() and preg_match(), multiplied by ~1000 parser calls to process an average page — hardly noticeable.

Heh. True. What I had in mind as I wrote that was changing the focus of tag docs. O_o

Re: com_connect - form and contact mailer

Apologies I am posting this here but I could not find a dedicated thread for ext_file_attach which returns a validation error

Attribute maxlength is only allowed when the input type is email, password, search, tel, text, or url.

I understand maxlength to be the max attribute of the plugin. Is there a way to have this valided or should I just omit the attribute?

Re: com_connect - form and contact mailer

Ugh, why am I trying to set the maxlength on a file input tag? That’s mad. Try editing the plugin and taking out lines 261-267. That should fix it. viz. remove this:

    if ($min) {
        $attr['minlength'] = 'minlength="' . intval($min) . '"';
    }

    if ($max) {
        $attr['maxlength'] = 'maxlength="' . intval($max) . '"';
    }

Please let know if that works and I’ll do it in the plugin.

So should I just remove the max attribute after updating the code with the one you suggest and add the max upload within the code?

The reason I am asking is because just updating the code and leaving the max attribute there, I still get the same error.
