<h1>Module HowTo - Account pages<br>
</h1>
<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: left;"><br>
<h2>1. Defining pages<br>
</h2>
You can define multiple subpages for your account page. Usually one
page is enough but you may display certain attribute settings on an
extra page (e.g. Unix group memberships are on a second page).<br>
<br>
The page names are set by <span style="font-weight: bold;">pages() </span>which
returns an array of names.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
<br>
The
<span style="font-style: italic;">ieee802Device</span>
module needs only one page which is called <span
style="font-style: italic;">'attributes'</span>.<br>
<br>
<table style="width: 100%; text-align: left;" class="mod-code"
border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="vertical-align: top;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /**<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * This function returns a list of all account pages
in this module.<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; */<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <span style="font-weight: bold;">function</span> <span
style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">pages</span>() {<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; return array('attributes');<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; }<br>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br>
<br>
<h2>2. Page display</h2>
Now that you have defined your subpages you will need one function for
each page to display it. The function must return <span
style="font-style: italic;">meta HTML code</span> as defined in the <span
style="font-style: italic;">modules specification</span>.<br>
This function is called <span style="font-weight: bold;">display_html_&lt;page
name&gt;()</span> where <span style="font-style: italic;">&lt;page
name&gt;</span> is the name of your subpage.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
<br>
The
<span style="font-style: italic;">ieee802Device</span>
module has only one subpage called <span style="font-style: italic;">'attributes'</span>.<br>
<br>
The first half of the code displays the existing MAC addresses and the
second an input field for new values.<br>
The variable <span style="font-style: italic;">$this-&gt;attributes</span>
contains all LDAP attributes of an account.<br>

<h2>3. Processing input data<br>
</h2>
Every time the user clicks on a submit button while your page is
displayed LAM will call a function in your module.<br>
This function is called <span style="font-weight: bold;">process_&lt;page
name&gt;()</span> where <span style="font-style: italic;">&lt;page
name&gt;</span> is the name of your subpage.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
<br>
The
<span style="font-style: italic;">ieee802Device</span>
module has only one subpage called <span style="font-style: italic;">'attributes'</span>
and therefore only <span style="font-style: italic;">process_attributes()</span>.<br>
<br>
The function checks the input fields and fills the LDAP attributes. If
all is ok it will enable the user to move to another module page.<br>

<h2>4. Defining that your module is ready for LDAP add/modify</h2>
Before a new account can be created or modified all modules are asked
if they are ready.<br>
There are two functions which control the module status. The <span
style="font-weight: bold;">module_ready()</span> function has to
return <span style="font-style: italic;">true</span> if the user may
move to another module page. If it is <span style="font-style: italic;">false</span>
the user will be redirected to your module page. The second function is
<span style="font-weight: bold;">module_complete()</span>. The user
cannot do the LDAP operation if one or modules return <span
style="font-style: italic;">false</span>.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
<br>
The
<span style="font-style: italic;">ieee802Device</span>
module uses a global variable to store the status: <span
style="font-style: italic;">$this-&gt;inputCorrect</span>. It is set
in <span style="font-style: italic;">process_attributes()</span>. The
variable can be preset to <span style="font-style: italic;">true</span>
because the MAC address is optional.<br>
