input

===Name===
_input
===Type===
_input
===Synopsis===
Create various input field using _input
===Description===
_input is like input in HTML, but can differ sometimes.
===Parameters===
All valid HTML attributes can be used, like :

name, value, class, placeholder, required etc..

For possible types you can search the '''FlexForm''' docs for all documentation that starts with _input.

Some examples for types are : text, url, phone, textarea, password, range, checkboxes, radiobutton, email and more.

There are some '''FlexForm''' specific attributes like ''parsepost'' and ''html''.

'''- parsepost''' can be used on e.g. a hidden field where the value holds names of other fields to be switched at post processing. e.g.

This will read the form field value with name "title" and replace [title] in the value of the newtitle field

''TODO: Above needs more details''


'''- html''' attribute allows filtering input fields. The options are :

* "default" which is the same as not adding it at all. It will filter by the HTMLPurifier rules (see link below)
* "all" no filtering will be done (not even XSS hacks)
* "nohtml" means all HTML will be filtered out
* "custom" is used like this : "custom=b,u,i", meaning no html is allowed, except bold, italic and underline


'''- required''' attribute in FlexForm differs from the HTML variant.

When a '''HTML5''' form field has the word "'''required'''" as an attribute, this field will always be required. Even '''required="no"''' will make the field required.

With '''FlexForm''' this needs to be '''required="required"''' for an input field to be required. Only required or required="no" or required="whatever" will not make the field a required field.

Example on how to use required in FlexForm :<syntaxhighlight lang="html">
<_input type="email" name="emailfield" placeholder="This is a placeholder" required="required" /> 
</syntaxhighlight>
