Description:
------------
It doesn't seem possible to set a default value on this element.

Probably you are using a wrong routine. I'm using the set default value in a production environment and it works good.
With a routine similar to this:
$elem = &$form->getElement($key);
$elem->setValue($val);
you can set the default value. Are you using a different routine?
The $val must be (obviously) the id of the element.
Please, take a look at the example files. you can find it in the Livesearch package.
There is a working example with the setValue method.
Let me know.

I'm looking through the example for setValue().

http://cvs.php.net/viewcvs.cgi/pear/HTML_QuickForm_Livesearch/example/index.php?revision=1.3&view=markup

Here is my routine:

$e = $form->getElement('account_id');
$e->setValue(12);

Which does not seem to be working. I've also tried using $form->setDefaults(array('account_id'=>12));

Thanks!

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PEAR itself. For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PEAR, please
visit http://pear.php.net/support/ as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.

Thank you for your interest in PEAR.

Now, this is a work example:
http://clansworld.fastgaming.it/PEAR/Livesearch/index.php
you can see the source
http://clansworld.fastgaming.it/PEAR/Livesearch/index.phps
http://clansworld.fastgaming.it/PEAR/Livesearch/livesearch.class.phps
http://clansworld.fastgaming.it/PEAR/Livesearch/myfunction.phps

It simple to make mistake writing the main "custom" files as livesearch.class.php and myfunction.php.
So review your code and solve your bug/typos.

If you have any problem about it, plz write to mailing list.
Thank you.
Bye
