Manual:HTMLForm チュートリアル 3

This page is a translated version of the page Manual:HTMLForm Tutorial 3 and the translation is 6% complete.

Any kind of field can be generated by HTMLForm, field-specific options will be described here. Generic options (those any field can be assigned) are described on Tutorial 2.

はじめに

In $formDescriptor, there are two ways to declare a field type: by the class or the type attributes.

class 属性の使用

First you can set the class attribute (do not mix or confuse with cssclass)

'class' => 'HTMLTextField'

HTMLTextField: A simple text field
HTMLFloatField: A simple text field with float (number) validation
HTMLIntField: A simple text field with integer validation
HTMLUserTextField: A simple text field for user names
HTMLTextAreaField: An extended text field
HTMLSelectField: ドロップダウンメニュー
HTMLSelectOrOtherField: A dropdown menu with an 'other' option that toggles a simple text field on
HTMLSelectAndOtherField: A dropdown menu and a simple text field
HTMLMultiSelectField: List of checkboxes
HTMLRadioField: ラジオボタン
HTMLCheckField: Single checkbox
HTMLCheckMatrix: 2D matrix of checkboxes
HTMLInfoField: Just text, no input
HTMLSubmitField: Additional submit button (HTMLForm always adds one by default)
HTMLHiddenField: Hidden field (data you need to send, but not shown or edited)
HTMLTagFilter: Tags filter
HTMLSizeFilterField: File's size filter
HTMLUsersMultiselectField: Select Multiple Users
HTMLTitleTextField: Textbox to take Page Name
HTMLDateTimeField: Date and Time Selector

type 属性の使用

Before in this tutorial, we used class, now we're going to use type. type provides a shortcut to class, but class takes priority. Therefore, you should not use both!

'type' => 'text'

text: HTMLTextField
password: HTMLTextField
textarea: HTMLTextAreaField
select: HTMLSelectField
radio: HTMLRadioField
multiselect: HTMLMultiSelectField
check: HTMLCheckField
checkmatrix: HTMLCheckMatrix
int: HTMLIntField
float: HTMLFloatField
info: HTMLInfoField
selectorother: HTMLSelectOrOtherField
selectandother: HTMLSelectAndOtherField
submit: HTMLSubmitField
hidden: HTMLHiddenField
tagfilter: HTMLTagFilter
sizefilter: HTMLSizeFilterField
user: HTMLUserTextField
usersmultiselect: HTMLUsersMultiselectField
url: HTMLTextField
title: HTMLTitleTextField
date: HTMLDateTimeField
time: HTMLDateTimeField
datetime: HTMLDateTimeField
limitselect: HTMLSelectField
email: HTMLTextField (supposedly for HTML5 client-side validation, NO SERVER-SIDE VALIDATION HERE!)
toggle: HTMLCheckFieldsimilar to check, but through use of 'invert' => true default state can be set to checked
