Hi,

Can anyone help me please?
I would like to change settings like #maxlength, #default_value, #size on 2 cck mvf input fields in the node add form on D6
I use the hook_alter_form function.
The #name of the fields are

field_fieldname[0][value]
field_fieldname[0][value2]

i try

$form['field_fieldname'][0]['value']['#maxlenght'] = 2;

But no luck

I am able to change #default_value for the first "from" field with

$form['field_fieldname'][0]['#default_value'] = t('2');

But don't know how to access the second field

Hope somebody can help me with this, been busy for hours.
Thanks in advance.

Andy

For starters, you have a typo

For starters, you have a typo on #maxlenght. It should be: #maxlength.

Next, the CCK input forms are a little touchy. Follow this tutorial: http://drupal.org/node/357328.

Thankx
