PHP Class lithium\template\helper\Form

For example: {{{// In controller code: $post = Post::find(1); return compact('post'); In view code: form->create($post); // Echoes a
tag and binds the helper to $post ?> form->text('title'); // Echoes an element, pre-filled with $post's title ?> form->submit('Update'); // Echoes a submit button with the title 'Update' ?> form->end(); // Echoes a
tag & unbinds the form ?> }}}

Property Type Description
$_binding - schema(): Returns an array defining the objects fields and their data types. - data(): Returns an associative array of the data that this object represents. - errors(): Returns an associate array of validation errors for the current data set, where the keys match keys from schema(), and the values are either strings (in cases where a field only has one error) or an array (in case of multiple errors), For an example of how to implement these methods, see the lithium\data\Entity object.
$_bindingOptions array Overwritten when end() is called.
$_strings array String templates used by this helper.
$_templateMap array For example, if all text input fields should be wrapped in tags, you can configure the template string mappings per the following: $this->form->config(array('templates' => array( 'text' => '' ))); Alternatively, you can re-map one type as another. This is useful if, for example, you include your own helper with custom form template strings which do not match the default template string names. Renders all password fields as text fields $this->form->config(array('templates' => array('password' => 'text')));
