This issue is resolved.
Regards Austin.
Hi I found that value is retreived properly, but when I increment it by 1 it does not work.
My code in hook_form_alter is as below.
if($form_id == myformid) { $form_state['values']['companies'] = $form_state['values']['companies'] + 1; }
Is this the way values can be incremented, or I need to follow any particular

Hi All As per form quickstart guide, forms can have #type as 'values'.
Example:
<?php $form['foo'] = array('#type' => 'value', '#value' => 'bar') ?>
Later point of time, we can retreive the value as $form_state['values']['foo'], and value retreived should be 'bar'.
In my module hook_form api, I have added
$form['companies'] = array( '#type' => 'value', '#value' => '1', ); In hook_form_alter, I want to get the value of $form_state['values']['companies'] and increment $form_state['values']['companies'] by 1. Is this allowed or Drupal has any restriction.
When I access the value of $form_state['values']['companies'], it just gives me empty value ('').
What could be problem here?
