Quick overview

Demonstration

Notes:

• run these samples in the order below, for each the source code is available.
• explanations may be removed where the explanation exists in an earlier example.
• There are two versions of the PHP code, the first uses the original QuickForm, the second QuickForm2.
• Both QuickForm and QuickForm2 versions use the same smarty templates (where appropriate).
• QuickForm2 is designed to work with PHP 5.2 or later, it does not, yet, support client side (javascript) field checking - unfortunately.
• The QuickForm2 code is alpha as of November 2009.
• To use the QuickForm2 code you will need the alpha renderer: Array.php, this may not stay there very long.

Demonstration	Php code	Smarty template	Php code QuickForm2
Simple Quickform	QfSimple.php		Qf2Simple.php
Quickform with data validation	QfValid.php		Qf2Valid.php
Quickform with Smarty	QfSmarty.php	QfSmarty.tpl	Qf2Smarty.php
Quickform with Smarty and Overlib	QfSmartyOverlib.php	QfSmartyOverlib.tpl	Qf2SmartyOverlib.php

To see one of every input field that QuickForm2 handles see Qf2ValidTypes.php & the same done with smarty Qf2ValidTypesSm.php with the template Qf2ValidTypes.tpl. These should be regarded work in progress.

You may also find the stylesheets Qf2Style.css & Qf2StyleSm.css useful.
