Question

How to get order Id in class Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Sales_Order_Create_Shipping_Method_Form ?

I tried out many ways such as, $this->getQuote->getId();, $this->getOrder->getId(); etc etc... But no Use. I am new in magento and extremely new to Its zend based module structure.

Any help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

First, do you want the quote id or the order id?

If you are after the quote id, try: $this->getQuote()->getId() (note that getQuote is a method).

If you are after order id, I am afraid you cannot do this. The order is created when you press the "place order" button so when you see the output of Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Sales_Order_Create_Shipping_Method_Form, no order exists in the system yet. Only the quote is available at this time.

Answer 2

I think your problem might be a typo in your code. It looks like you are accesing methods as if they where properties.

Change $this->getQuote->getId(); into $this->getQuote()->getId();

This should work as the quote object is being accessed in that same block in line 140 within Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Sales_Order_Create_Shipping_Method_Form::getShippingPrice()

Answer 3

You should be able to do the following, assuming that the order id has been reserved on the quote at the time you're accessing this method.

$order_id = $this->getQuote()->getReservedOrderId();
$order = Mage::getModel('sales/order')->load($order_id);
