This is set by 'label' element of the 4th argument to addElement() * or with the setLabel() method. It might not be set at all. * html The html for the input field, you generate this. * type text, image, textarea, ... If you were clever you could look at this. * Note that this is not set for: fieldset or group. * attribs An array of field attributes, some generated by QuickForm2 others * that were given to addElement(). * error This will be present if there is a validation error associated with this field. * If the option group_errors is set this will not be generated, any error * will be in a pseudo field called 'errors', this is what happens in this example. * value The element value. * elements If a fieldset or group, the contained elements. * If a checkbox an array keyed by fieldname index (eg '0' from 'vegetable[0]') * value is the form field. * If a radio button an array keyed by the field 'value' (the 'value' from the attributes) * value is the form field. * * Often you will generate the fields in the form and place them where you want them, * to do this use the fields, eg: {$FormData.Age.html} * * What is going on here is complicated because it searches $FormData, it ignores anything * that is not an input field (is_array($Field) && $Field.id != ''). * Look towards the bottom of the loop for ''Normal case''. * * The rest of this deals with a 'group' within a 'group' this is more complicated, * these appear to smarty as an array, loop through it in the same way as the outer loop * works, looking for arrays with a member 'id'. Thus you end up with 3 nested loops. * * The {foreach gets the key, more by way of interest than need. * * If $FormData.debug is true then generate some tracing. * * Not everything has a label, so generate to keep the columns aligned. * * This generates far too many blank lines in the HTML - but this is demo code! *} {foreach from=$FormData item=Field key=Key} {* Check that it is an input field *} {if is_array($Field) && $Field.id != ''} {if $FormData.debug}<br>outer:id={$Field.id} key={$Key}<br>{/if} {if is_array($Field) && is_array($Field.elements) && $Field.id != ''} {* This is a group - loop through the subvalues *} {if $FormData.debug}Group subvalues<br>{/if} {foreach from=$Field item=FieldIn_1 key=KeyIn_1} {* Loop through the members of the group array *} {if $FormData.debug}KeyIn_1:{$KeyIn_1}<br>{/if} {* Is this a group within a group ? *} {if is_array($FieldIn_1) && $FieldIn_1.id != ''} {if is_array($FieldIn_1.elements)} {foreach from=$FieldIn_1 item=FieldIn_2 key=KeyIn_2} {* 3rd nested loop - traverse group within group *} {if $FormData.debug}KeyIn_2:{$KeyIn_2}{/if} {if is_array($FieldIn_2) && $FieldIn_2.id != ''} <div class="row"> {if $FormData.debug}Name={$FieldIn_2.name}{/if} <label class="element">{$FieldIn_2.label|default:' '}</label> <div class="element">{$FieldIn_2.html}</div> </div> {/if} {/foreach} {else} {* Top level group - ie not a group within a group *} <div class="row"> {if $FormData.debug}inner id: {$FieldIn_1.id} name: {$FieldIn_1.name}<br>{/if} <label class="element">{$FieldIn_1.label|default:' '}</label> <div class="element">{$FieldIn_1.html}</div> </div> {/if} {else} {if $FormData.debug}Ignore this inner field:{$FieldIn_1}{/if} {/if} {if $FormData.debug}<p>{/if} {/foreach} {else}{* group check *} {* Normal case - ie when not a group -- not much to this really! *} <div class="row"> <label class="element">{$Field.label|default:' '}</label> <div class="element">{$Field.html}</div> </div> {/if}{* group check *} {/if}{* Input field check *} {/foreach} </form> {if $FormData.required_note and not $FormData.frozen} {$FormData.required_note} {/if} <!-- Display any errors, loop over what there is in the errors array --> <div style="color:red"> {foreach from=$FormData.errors item=error} {$error}<br> {/foreach} </div> <p> <!-- Need this else the formatting is wrong -- don't know why --> <p> This is a simple form, fill in some values and press <i>Submit</i>. <p> This is a quickform that has been rendered with smarty. <p style="font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold;"> Return to this <em><a href='index.php'>tutorial index</a></em>. </p> </body> </html>
