hello again,

in my code:

my $nick = $c->stash->{form}->get_field('nickname');
$nick->value($c->stash->{form}->param('username')) if length($c-
stash->{form}->param('nickname')) == 0;
$c->stash->{form}->process;
$c->log->debug($c->stash->{form}->get_field('nickname')->value);

in the debug output I can see that nickname is set to the username,
when the form is rendered, the nickname field stays empty - what am I
doing wrong?

For text fields, value() is just an alias to default() - and default
is ignored when rendering after a submission.

I think either of these solutions should work:

    $nick->default( $form->param('username') );
    $nick->force_default(1);

or

    $form->add_valid( 'nickname', $form->param('username') );

Carl

the latter I'd tried before (and did not work), the solution with force_default did it.

THANKS
josef
