Form module: Attributes for form fields

Hi,
I am using the forms module and created a form. The form has a field of type number. Now I want to define a max value and a default value for the field. I entered max=10 default=1 in the attributes input field.

The generated code is
<input type="number" name="quantity" id="quantity" value="" class="numeric" required min="0" max="10000" data-decimal="0" data-negative="0" max=10 default=1 />

The browser only interprets the first max value with 10000. Why isn't the value replaced. And how can I pass the default value of 1 to the field?

    This appears to be an issue with the Form_builder class auto assigning a default value for the min and max. In your case if you view source, you'll see 2 max and min attributes on the element I'm assuming.

    To fix, in the Form_builder::create_number() method (around lines 2732-2733), you can change the default values to NULL.

    I've pushed this change to the develop branch:

    Hi,
    for max value this worked. I also had to adjust the defaults array ~10 lines above and set min to NULL there to get it working for the min value.

    The other question is now, how to set a default value as initial value when the form is rendered.

    Hi,
    I think I have found another bug?
    In line ~14 of the file forms/controllers/form.php the method $form->get_return_url(); returns nothing. If I try to read $form->return_url the correct value is shown.

    Thanks for the report. I've posted a fix for the get_return_url issue. Regarding setting an initial value, I've added an additional field labeled "Default value" in which you can set defaults that should help.

    Does your fuel/modules/forms/models/Forms_model.php have that line in it?
