Since SAM V2 is open-source software, it is easily customized with a working knowledge of HTML, PHP, MySQL, and the SAM source code/database structure.

Tables Names and Directory Structure

How to Add a Field to a Table and Form

1. Add the field to the underlying table in MySQL. For example, to add a field called evaluator_name to the disabilities table, you would execute a SQL statement similar to:

alter table disabilities add column evaluator_name varchar(50) … 

Or you could use the MySQL workbench to alter the table.

2. In the disability subdirectory, you will need to modify the programs add.php, edit.php, view.php, and list.php to handle the new evaluator_name field.

3. In add.php, you would add a table row for the new field with 2 table columns, one for the field label, and one for the input of the value for evaluator_name.

<tr>
   <td align="right"><label for="evaluator_name"><strong>Evaluator Name</strong></label></td>
   <td>
      <input type="text" name="evaluator_name" />
   </td>
</tr>

4. If the field requires validation, then the validateForm javascript function should be modified to perform validation. For example, to make the evaluator_name field required, add:

if(theForm.evaluator_name.value == "") {
   alert('Please enter a value for the "Evaluator Name" field.');
   theForm.evaluator_name.focus();
   return (false);
}

5. In edit.php, the same changes made to add.php must be made. In addition, a variable must be created called $evaluator_name that reads the $row[‘evaluator_name’] returned in $results and this variable should be displayed as the value for the HTML input field for evaluator_name.

<?php 
if (isset($i)) {
   $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM disabilities WHERE uid = '$i'");
   $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
   $sid = $row['sid'];
   $disability = $row['disability'];
   $specification = $row['specification'];
   $type = $row['type'];
   $evaluator_name = $row['evaluator_name'];
   ...
?>
...
<tr>
   <td align="right"><label for="evaluator_name"><strong>Evaluator Name</strong></label></td>
   <td>
      <input type="text" name="evaluator_name" value="<?php echo $evaluator_name; ?>" />
   </td>
</tr>

6. In view.php, a variable must be created called $evaluator_name that reads the $row[‘evaluator_name’] returned in $results. This is the same change made in edit.php detailed in step 5. A table row for the new field needs to be created with 2 table columns, one for the label and one to display the $evaluator_name field without allowing input.

<tr>  
   <td align="right"><strong>Evaluator Name</strong></td>
   <td bgcolor="#f0f0f0"><?php echo $evaluator_name; ?></td>
</tr>

7. If the field should be displayed in the default list view, then list.php should be modified to select the field in the MySQL query into $result. The display table should have to be modified to add a column for Evaluator Name, display $row[‘evaluator_name’], and increase the results colspan by 1.

echo "";
$result = mysql_query("SELECT uid, disability, specification, type, expiration, evaluator_name FROM disabilities WHERE sid = '$i' ORDER BY disability");
$i = 0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
   $i += 1;
   if($i % 2 == 0) {         $c = '#f0f0f0';
   }
   else { 
      $c = '#ffffff';
   }      $expiration = $row['expiration'];      if($expiration!="") {
      $expiration = substr($expiration,5,2) . '-' . substr($expiration,8,2) . '-' . substr($expiration,0,4);
   }
   echo "";
}
echo "
viewDisabilitySpecificationTypeExpiration DateEvaluator Name
<a href='disability.php?a=view&i=" . $row['uid'] . "'>view</a>" . $row['disability'] . "" . $row['specification'] . "" . $row['type'] . "". $expiration . "" . $row['evaluator_name'] . "
