I am using the same form to "preview" an object as I am to "edit/update" the same object. In my showAction() for the controller I have the following code:

$form = $this->createForm(new SalesEntityType($entity), $entity, array('read_only' => true) );

This code works great for the primary form but there are a number of subforms that are made part of this by inclusion. One example in the show.html.twig is:

{% include 'TargetCommonBundle:Hours:hoursForm.html.twig' with { form: hours } %}

Unfortunately, the read_only setting on the parent form does not seem to cascade to the included subforms. Is there a way to handle this?

  • It seems that the read_only works fine in the subforms as it does in the main form. It is just that the none of the drop-down lists in the main or subforms are disabled from being changed. Any help appreciated. – Cosmtar Dec 10 '12 at 04:53
  • Can you add the read_only variable to the with statement? ie: with { form: hours, read_only: read_only } – lifo Dec 10 '12 at 12:28
  • Try: $form = $this->createForm(new SalesEntityType($entity), $entity, array('disabled' => true) ); – Lighthart Dec 10 '12 at 17:27

Try: 

$form = $this->createForm(
    new SalesEntityType($entity),
    $entity,
    [ 'disabled' => true ]
);

See: vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Component/Form/CHANGELOG.md, first line

// It is the way more fast to disabled a form
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
    $builder->setDisabled(true);
}
