Set a default value with angular js

Question

I have an field where the id is set via php:

<input name="user_id" type="text" value="<?php echo $this->r->user_id; ?>"  ng-model="entry.user_id" >

But the value does not appear in the field.

How can I set it from php to angular js?

Set the initial value of the ng-model using ng-init instead:

<input name="user_id" type="text" ng-model="entry.user_id" ng-init="entry.user_id = <?php echo $this->r->user_id; ?>" >

I'm not sure about the php syntax, but this will set value for you as long as the controller has an entry object available.

<input type="text" ng-model="enquiry.companyName" ng-init="enquiry.companyName='<?php echo $_SESSION['COMPANYNAME'] ?>'"  name="companyName">

Sigle quote around php block is important.

You might want to try ng-value as well. Might fit your situation better. I didn't come across it until today:

<input name="user_id" type="text" ng-value="<?php echo $this->r->user_id; ?>"  ng-model="entry.user_id" >
