<h1>Form Helper</h1>
|
|
|
60 |
|
|
|
61 |
<p>The Form Helper file contains functions that assist in working with forms.</p>
|
|
|
62 |
|
|
|
63 |
|
|
|
64 |
<h2>Loading this Helper</h2>
|
|
|
65 |
|
|
|
66 |
<p>This helper is loaded using the following code:</p>
|
|
|
67 |
<code>$this->load->helper('form');</code>
|
|
|
68 |
|
|
|
69 |
<p>The following functions are available:</p>
|
|
|
70 |
|
|
|
71 |
|
|
|
72 |
|
|
|
73 |
<h2>form_open()</h2>
|
|
|
74 |
|
|
|
75 |
<p>Creates an opening form tag with a base URL <strong>built from your config preferences</strong>. It will optionally let you
|
|
|
76 |
add form attributes and hidden input fields.</p>
|
|
|
77 |
|
|
|
78 |
<p>The main benefit of using this tag rather than hard coding your own HTML is that it permits your site to be more portable
|
|
|
79 |
in the event your URLs ever change.</p>
|
|
|
80 |
|
|
|
81 |
<p>Here's a simple example:</p>
|
|
|
82 |
|
|
|
83 |
<code>echo form_open('email/send');</code>
|
|
|
84 |
|
|
|
85 |
<p>The above example would create a form that points to your base URL plus the "email/send" URI segments, like this:</p>
|
|
|
86 |
|
|
|
87 |
<code><form method="post" action="http:/example.com/index.php/email/send" /></code>
|
|
|
88 |
|
|
|
89 |
<h4>Adding Attributes</h4>
|
|
|
90 |
|
|
|
91 |
<p>Attributes can be added by passing an associative array to the second parameter, like this:</p>
|
|
|
92 |
|
|
|
93 |
<code>
|
|
|
94 |
$attributes = array('class' => 'email', 'id' => 'myform');<br />
|
|
|
95 |
<br />
|
|
|
96 |
echo form_open('email/send', $attributes);</code>
|
|
|
97 |
|
|
|
98 |
<p>The above example would create a form similar to this:</p>
|
|
|
99 |
|
|
|
100 |
<code><form method="post" action="http:/example.com/index.php/email/send" class="email" id="myform" /></code>
|
|
|
101 |
|
|
|
102 |
<h4>Adding Hidden Input Fields</h4>
|
|
|
103 |
|
|
|
104 |
<p>Hidden fields can be added by passing an associative array to the third parameter, like this:</p>
|
|
|
105 |
|
|
|
106 |
<code>
|
|
|
107 |
$hidden = array('username' => 'Joe', 'member_id' => '234');<br />
|
|
|
108 |
<br />
|
|
|
109 |
echo form_open('email/send', '', $hidden);</code>
|
|
|
110 |
|
|
|
111 |
<p>The above example would create a form similar to this:</p>
|
|
|
112 |
|
|
|
113 |
<code><form method="post" action="http:/example.com/index.php/email/send"><br />
|
|
|
114 |
<input type="hidden" name="username" value="Joe" /><br />
|
|
|
115 |
<input type="hidden" name="member_id" value="234" /></code>
|
|
|
116 |
|
|
|
117 |
|
|
|
118 |
<h2>form_open_multipart()</h2>
|
|
|
119 |
|
|
|
120 |
<p>This function is absolutely identical to the <dfn>form_open()</dfn> tag above except that it adds a multipart attribute,
|
|
|
121 |
which is necessary if you would like to use the form to upload files with.</p>
|
|
|
122 |
|
|
|
123 |
<h2>form_hidden()</h2>
|
|
|
124 |
|
|
|
125 |
<p>Lets you generate hidden input fields. You can either submit a name/value string to create one field:</p>
|
|
|
126 |
|
|
|
127 |
<code>form_hidden('username', 'johndoe');<br />
|
|
|
128 |
<br />
|
|
|
129 |
// Would produce:<br /><br />
|
|
|
130 |
<input type="hidden" name="username" value="johndoe" /></code>
|
|
|
131 |
|
|
|
132 |
<p>Or you can submit an associative array to create multiple fields:</p>
|
|
|
133 |
|
|
|
134 |
<code>$data = array(<br />
|
|
|
135 |
'name' => 'John Doe',<br />
|
|
|
136 |
'email' => 'john@example.com',<br />
|
|
|
137 |
'url' => 'http://example.com'<br />
|
|
|
138 |
);<br />
|
|
|
139 |
<br />
|
|
|
140 |
echo form_hidden($data);<br />
|
|
|
141 |
<br />
|
|
|
142 |
// Would produce:<br /><br />
|
|
|
143 |
<input type="hidden" name="name" value="John Doe" /><br />
|
|
|
144 |
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="john@example.com" /><br />
|
|
|
145 |
<input type="hidden" name="url" value="http://example.com" /></code>
|
|
|
146 |
|
|
|
147 |
|
|
|
148 |
|
|
|
149 |
|
|
|
150 |
<h2>form_input()</h2>
|
|
|
151 |
|
|
|
152 |
<p>Lets you generate a standard text input field. You can minimally pass the field name and value in the first
|
|
|
153 |
and second parameter:</p>
|
|
|
154 |
|
|
|
155 |
<code>echo form_input('username', 'johndoe');</code>
|
|
|
156 |
|
|
|
157 |
<p>Or you can pass an associative array containing any data you wish your form to contain:</p>
|
|
|
158 |
|
|
|
159 |
<code>$data = array(<br />
|
|
|
160 |
'name' => 'username',<br />
|
|
|
161 |
'id' => 'username',<br />
|
|
|
162 |
'value' => 'johndoe',<br />
|
|
|
163 |
'maxlength' => '100',<br />
|
|
|
164 |
'size' => '50',<br />
|
|
|
165 |
'style' => 'width:50%',<br />
|
|
|
166 |
);<br />
|
|
|
167 |
<br />
|
|
|
168 |
echo form_input($data);<br />
|
|
|
169 |
<br />
|
|
|
170 |
// Would produce:<br /><br />
|
|
|
171 |
<input type="text" name="username" id="username" value="johndoe" maxlength="100" size="50" style="width:50%" /></code>
|
|
|
172 |
|
|
|
173 |
<p>If you would like your form to contain some additional data, like Javascript, you can pass it as a string in the
|
|
|
174 |
third parameter:</p>
|
|
|
175 |
|
|
|
176 |
<code>$js = 'onClick="some_function()"';<br />
|
|
|
177 |
<br />
|
|
|
178 |
echo form_input('username', 'johndoe', $js);</code>
|
|
|
179 |
|
|
|
180 |
<h2>form_password()</h2>
|
|
|
181 |
|
|
|
182 |
<p>This function is identical in all respects to the <dfn>form_input()</dfn> function above
|
|
|
183 |
except that is sets it as a "password" type.</p>
|
|
|
184 |
|
|
|
185 |
<h2>form_upload()</h2>
|
|
|
186 |
|
|
|
187 |
<p>This function is identical in all respects to the <dfn>form_input()</dfn> function above
|
|
|
188 |
except that is sets it as a "file" type, allowing it to be used to upload files.</p>
|
|
|
189 |
|
|
|
190 |
<h2>form_textarea()</h2>
|
|
|
191 |
|
|
|
192 |
<p>This function is identical in all respects to the <dfn>form_input()</dfn> function above
|
|
|
193 |
except that it generates a "textarea" type. Note: Instead of the "maxlength" and "size" attributes in the above
|
|
|
194 |
example, you will instead specify "rows" and "cols".</p>
|
|
|
195 |
|
|
|
196 |
|
|
|
197 |
<h2>form_dropdown()</h2>
|
|
|
198 |
|
|
|
199 |
<p>Lets you create a standard drop-down field. The first parameter will contain the name of the field,
|
|
|
200 |
the second parameter will contain an associative array of options, and the third parameter will contain the
|
|
|
201 |
value you wish to be selected. You can also pass an array through the third parameter, and CodeIgniter will create a multiple select for you. Example:</p>
|
|
|
202 |
|
|
|
203 |
<code>$options = array(<br />
|
|
|
204 |
'small' => 'Small Shirt',<br />
|
|
|
205 |
'med' => 'Medium Shirt',<br />
|
|
|
206 |
'large' => 'Large Shirt',<br />
|
|
|
207 |
'xlarge' => 'Extra Large Shirt',<br />
|
|
|
208 |
);<br />
|
|
|
209 |
<br />
|
|
|
210 |
$shirts_on_sale = array('small', 'large');<br />
|
|
|
211 |
<br />
|
|
|
212 |
echo form_dropdown('shirts', $options, 'large');<br />
|
|
|
213 |
<br />
|
|
|
214 |
// Would produce:<br />
|
|
|
215 |
<br />
|
|
|
216 |
<select name="shirts"><br />
|
|
|
217 |
<option value="small">Small Shirt</option><br />
|
|
|
218 |
<option value="med">Medium Shirt</option><br />
|
|
|
219 |
<option value="large" selected="selected">Large Shirt</option><br />
|
|
|
220 |
<option value="xlarge">Extra Large Shirt</option><br />
|
|
|
221 |
</select><br />
|
|
|
222 |
<br />
|
|
|
223 |
echo form_dropdown('shirts', $options, $shirts_on_sale);<br />
|
|
|
224 |
<br />
|
|
|
225 |
// Would produce:<br />
|
|
|
226 |
<br />
|
|
|
227 |
<select name="shirts" multiple="multiple"><br />
|
|
|
228 |
<option value="small" selected="selected">Small Shirt</option><br />
|
|
|
229 |
<option value="med">Medium Shirt</option><br />
|
|
|
230 |
<option value="large" selected="selected">Large Shirt</option><br />
|
|
|
231 |
<option value="xlarge">Extra Large Shirt</option><br />
|
|
|
232 |
</select></code>
|
|
|
233 |
|
|
|
234 |
|
|
|
235 |
<p>If you would like the opening <select> to contain additional data, like an <kbd>id</kbd> attribute or JavaScript, you can pass it as a string in the
|
|
|
236 |
fourth parameter:</p>
|
|
|
237 |
|
|
|
238 |
<code>$js = 'id="shirts" onChange="some_function();"';<br />
|
|
|
239 |
<br />
|
|
|
240 |
echo form_dropdown('shirts', $options, 'large', $js);</code>
|
|
|
241 |
|
|
|
242 |
<p>If the array passed as $options is a multidimensional array, form_dropdown() will produce an <optgroup> with the array key as the label.</p>
|
|
|
243 |
|
|
|
244 |
<h2>form_fieldset()</h2>
|
|
|
245 |
|
|
|
246 |
<p>Lets you generate fieldset/legend fields.</p>
|
|
|
247 |
<code>echo form_fieldset('Address Information');<br />
|
|
|
248 |
echo "<p>fieldset content here</p>\n";<br />
|
|
|
249 |
echo form_fieldset_close();
|
|
|
250 |
<br />
|
|
|
251 |
<br />
|
|
|
252 |
// Produces<br />
|
|
|
253 |
<fieldset>
|
|
|
254 |
<br />
|
|
|
255 |
<legend>Address Information</legend>
|
|
|
256 |
<br />
|
|
|
257 |
<p>form content here</p>
|
|
|
258 |
<br />
|
|
|
259 |
</fieldset></code>
|
|
|
260 |
<p>Similar to other functions, you can submit an associative array in the second parameter if you prefer to set additional attributes. </p>
|
|
|
261 |
<p><code>$attributes = array('id' => 'address_info', 'class' => 'address_info');<br />
|
|
|
262 |
echo form_fieldset('Address Information', $attributes);<br />
|
|
|
263 |
echo "<p>fieldset content here</p>\n";<br />
|
|
|
264 |
echo form_fieldset_close(); <br />
|
|
|
265 |
<br />
|
|
|
266 |
// Produces<br />
|
|
|
267 |
<fieldset id="address_info" class="address_info"> <br />
|
|
|
268 |
<legend>Address Information</legend> <br />
|
|
|
269 |
<p>form content here</p> <br />
|
|
|
270 |
</fieldset></code></p>
|
|
|
271 |
<h2>form_fieldset_close()</h2>
|
|
|
272 |
<p>Produces a closing </fieldset> tag. The only advantage to using this function is it permits you to pass data to it
|
|
|
273 |
which will be added below the tag. For example:</p>
|
|
|
274 |
<code>$string = "</div></div>";<br />
|
|
|
275 |
<br />
|
|
|
276 |
echo fieldset_close($string);<br />
|
|
|
277 |
<br />
|
|
|
278 |
// Would produce:<br />
|
|
|
279 |
</fieldset><br />
|
|
|
280 |
</div></div></code>
|
|
|
281 |
<h2>form_checkbox()</h2>
|
|
|
282 |
<p>Lets you generate a checkbox field. Simple example:</p>
|
|
|
283 |
<code>echo form_checkbox('newsletter', 'accept', TRUE);<br />
|
|
|
284 |
<br />
|
|
|
285 |
// Would produce:<br />
|
|
|
286 |
<br />
|
|
|
287 |
<input type="checkbox" name="newsletter" value="accept" checked="checked" /></code>
|
|
|
288 |
<p>The third parameter contains a boolean TRUE/FALSE to determine whether the box should be checked or not.</p>
|
|
|
289 |
<p>Similar to the other form functions in this helper, you can also pass an array of attributes to the function:</p>
|
|
|
290 |
|
|
|
291 |
<code>$data = array(<br />
|
|
|
292 |
'name' => 'newsletter',<br />
|
|
|
293 |
'id' => 'newsletter',<br />
|
|
|
294 |
'value' => 'accept',<br />
|
|
|
295 |
'checked' => TRUE,<br />
|
|
|
296 |
'style' => 'margin:10px',<br />
|
|
|
297 |
);<br />
|
|
|
298 |
<br />
|
|
|
299 |
echo form_checkbox($data);<br />
|
|
|
300 |
<br />
|
|
|
301 |
// Would produce:<br /><br />
|
|
|
302 |
<input type="checkbox" name="newsletter" id="newsletter" value="accept" checked="checked" style="margin:10px" /></code>
|
|
|
303 |
|
|
|
304 |
<p>As with other functions, if you would like the tag to contain additional data, like JavaScript, you can pass it as a string in the
|
|
|
305 |
fourth parameter:</p>
|
|
|
306 |
|
|
|
307 |
<code>$js = 'onClick="some_function()"';<br />
|
|
|
308 |
<br />
|
|
|
309 |
echo form_checkbox('newsletter', 'accept', TRUE, $js)</code>
|
|
|
310 |
|
|
|
311 |
|
|
|
312 |
<h2>form_radio()</h2>
|
|
|
313 |
<p>This function is identical in all respects to the <dfn>form_checkbox()</dfn> function above except that is sets it as a "radio" type.</p>
|
|
|
314 |
|
|
|
315 |
|
|
|
316 |
<h2>form_submit()</h2>
|
|
|
317 |
|
|
|
318 |
<p>Lets you generate a standard submit button. Simple example:</p>
|
|
|
319 |
<code>echo form_submit('mysubmit', 'Submit Post!');<br />
|
|
|
320 |
<br />
|
|
|
321 |
// Would produce:<br />
|
|
|
322 |
<br />
|
|
|
323 |
<input type="submit" name="mysubmit" value="Submit Post!" /></code>
|
|
|
324 |
<p>Similar to other functions, you can submit an associative array in the first parameter if you prefer to set your own attributes.
|
|
|
325 |
The third parameter lets you add extra data to your form, like JavaScript.</p>
|
|
|
326 |
<h2>form_label()</h2>
|
|
|
327 |
<p>Lets you generate a <label>. Simple example:</p>
|
|
|
328 |
<code>echo form_label('What is your Name', 'username');<br />
|
|
|
329 |
<br />
|
|
|
330 |
// Would produce:
|
|
|
331 |
<br />
|
|
|
332 |
<label for="username">What is your Name</label></code>
|
|
|
333 |
<p>Similar to other functions, you can submit an associative array in the third parameter if you prefer to set additional attributes. </p>
|
|
|
334 |
<p><code>$attributes = array(<br />
|
|
|
335 |
'class' => 'mycustomclass',<br />
|
|
|
336 |
'style' => 'color: #000;',<br />
|
|
|
337 |
);<br />
|
|
|
338 |
echo form_label('What is your Name', 'username', $attributes);<br />
|
|
|
339 |
<br />
|
|
|
340 |
// Would produce: <br />
|
|
|
341 |
<label for="username" class="mycustomclass" style="color: #000;">What is your Name</label></code></p>
|
|
|
342 |
<h2>form_reset()</h2>
|
|
|
343 |
|
|
|
344 |
<p>Lets you generate a standard reset button. Use is identical to <dfn>form_submit()</dfn>.</p>
|
|
|
345 |
|
|
|
346 |
<h2>form_button()</h2>
|
|
|
347 |
|
|
|
348 |
<p>Lets you generate a standard button element. You can minimally pass the button name and content in the first and second parameter:</p>
|
|
|
349 |
<code>
|
|
|
350 |
echo form_button('name','content');<br />
|
|
|
351 |
<br />
|
|
|
352 |
// Would produce<br />
|
|
|
353 |
<button name="name" type="button">Content</button>
|
|
|
354 |
</code>
|
|
|
355 |
|
|
|
356 |
Or you can pass an associative array containing any data you wish your form to contain:
|
|
|
357 |
<code>
|
|
|
358 |
$data = array(<br />
|
|
|
359 |
'name' => 'button',<br />
|
|
|
360 |
'id' => 'button',<br />
|
|
|
361 |
'value' => 'true',<br />
|
|
|
362 |
'type' => 'reset',<br />
|
|
|
363 |
'content' => 'Reset'<br />
|
|
|
364 |
);<br />
|
|
|
365 |
<br />
|
|
|
366 |
echo form_button($data);<br />
|
|
|
367 |
<br />
|
|
|
368 |
// Would produce:<br />
|
|
|
369 |
<button name="button" id="button" value="true" type="reset">Reset</button>
|
|
|
370 |
</code>
|
|
|
371 |
|
|
|
372 |
If you would like your form to contain some additional data, like JavaScript, you can pass it as a string in the third parameter:
|
|
|
373 |
<code>
|
|
|
374 |
$js = 'onClick="some_function()"';<br /><br />
|
|
|
375 |
echo form_button('mybutton', 'Click Me', $js);
|
|
|
376 |
</code>
|
|
|
377 |
|
|
|
378 |
|
|
|
379 |
<h2>form_close()</h2>
|
|
|
380 |
|
|
|
381 |
<p>Produces a closing </form> tag. The only advantage to using this function is it permits you to pass data to it
|
|
|
382 |
which will be added below the tag. For example:</p>
|
|
|
383 |
|
|
|
384 |
<code>$string = "</div></div>";<br />
|
|
|
385 |
<br />
|
|
|
386 |
echo form_close($string);<br />
|
|
|
387 |
<br />
|
|
|
388 |
// Would produce:<br />
|
|
|
389 |
<br />
|
|
|
390 |
</form><br />
|
|
|
391 |
</div></div></code>
|
|
|
392 |
|
|
|
393 |
|
|
|
394 |
|
|
|
395 |
|
|
|
396 |
|
|
|
397 |
<h2>form_prep()</h2>
|
|
|
398 |
|
|
|
399 |
<p>Allows you to safely use HTML and characters such as quotes within form elements without breaking out of the form. Consider this example:</p>
|
|
|
400 |
|
|
|
401 |
<code>$string = 'Here is a string containing <strong>"quoted"</strong> text.';<br />
|
|
|
402 |
<br />
|
|
|
403 |
<input type="text" name="myform" value="<var>$string</var>" /></code>
|
|
|
404 |
|
|
|
405 |
<p>Since the above string contains a set of quotes it will cause the form to break.
|
|
|
406 |
The form_prep function converts HTML so that it can be used safely:</p>
|
|
|
407 |
|
|
|
408 |
<code><input type="text" name="myform" value="<var><?php echo form_prep($string); ?></var>" /></code>
|
|
|
409 |
|
|
|
410 |
<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> If you use any of the form helper functions listed in this page the form
|
|
|
411 |
values will be prepped automatically, so there is no need to call this function. Use it only if you are
|
|
|
412 |
creating your own form elements.</p>
|
|
|
413 |
|
|
|
414 |
|
|
|
415 |
<h2>set_value()</h2>
|
|
|
416 |
|
|
|
417 |
<p>Permits you to set the value of an input form or textarea. You must supply the field name via the first parameter of the function.
|
|
|
418 |
The second (optional) parameter allows you to set a default value for the form. Example:</p>
|
|
|
419 |
|
|
|
420 |
<code><input type="text" name="quantity" value="<dfn><?php echo set_value('quantity', '0'); ?></dfn>" size="50" /></code>
|
|
|
421 |
|
|
|
422 |
<p>The above form will show "0" when loaded for the first time.</p>
|
|
|
423 |
|
|
|
424 |
<h2>set_select()</h2>
|
|
|
425 |
|
|
|
426 |
<p>If you use a <dfn><select></dfn> menu, this function permits you to display the menu item that was selected. The first parameter
|
|
|
427 |
must contain the name of the select menu, the second parameter must contain the value of
|
|
|
428 |
each item, and the third (optional) parameter lets you set an item as the default (use boolean TRUE/FALSE).</p>
|
|
|
429 |
|
|
|
430 |
<p>Example:</p>
|
|
|
431 |
|
|
|
432 |
<code>
|
|
|
433 |
<select name="myselect"><br />
|
|
|
434 |
<option value="one" <dfn><?php echo set_select('myselect', 'one', TRUE); ?></dfn> >One</option><br />
|
|
|
435 |
<option value="two" <dfn><?php echo set_select('myselect', 'two'); ?></dfn> >Two</option><br />
|
|
|
436 |
<option value="three" <dfn><?php echo set_select('myselect', 'three'); ?></dfn> >Three</option><br />
|
|
|
437 |
</select>
|
|
|
438 |
</code>
|
|
|
439 |
|
|
|
440 |
|
|
|
441 |
<h2>set_checkbox()</h2>
|
|
|
442 |
|
|
|
443 |
<p>Permits you to display a checkbox in the state it was submitted. The first parameter
|
|
|
444 |
must contain the name of the checkbox, the second parameter must contain its value, and the third (optional) parameter lets you set an item as the default (use boolean TRUE/FALSE). Example:</p>
|
|
|
445 |
|
|
|
446 |
<code><input type="checkbox" name="mycheck" value="1" <dfn><?php echo set_checkbox('mycheck', '1'); ?></dfn> /><br />
|
|
|
447 |
<input type="checkbox" name="mycheck" value="2" <dfn><?php echo set_checkbox('mycheck', '2'); ?></dfn> /></code>
|
|
|
448 |
|
|
|
449 |
|
|
|
450 |
<h2>set_radio()</h2>
|
|
|
451 |
|
|
|
452 |
<p>Permits you to display radio buttons in the state they were submitted. This function is identical to the <strong>set_checkbox()</strong> function above.</p>
|
|
|
453 |
|
|
|
454 |
<code><input type="radio" name="myradio" value="1" <dfn><?php echo set_radio('myradio', '1', TRUE); ?></dfn> /><br />
|
|
|
455 |
<input type="radio" name="myradio" value="2" <dfn><?php echo set_radio('myradio', '2'); ?></dfn> /></code>
