Thanks Jonathan! I find Form Builder easy to use and to style – thanks for making it available to us, and thanks for the 1.5 version update. Much appreciated! =)

Peeking @ the code I see a $field['defaultvalue'] mentioned. is this something that can be used to put in a ‘default value’ in a form? (Just being nosey.)

seems it removed html.

Let me restate a portion of what was above:

‘defaultvalue’ will be the text between the elements or in the value= so the form will have pre-filled in data.

Is there a way to pass a default value into the text forms from a variable? For example:

$contactForm->addField(array (
‘id’ => ‘guess_city’,
‘type’ => ‘textbox’,
‘label’ => ‘The City You Are In’,
‘required’ => false,
‘maxlength’ => 2,
‘defaultvalue’ => $guess_city,
‘headerinjectioncheck’ => ‘full’
));

‘defaultvalue’ will be the text between the or in the value= so the form will have pre-filled in data.

Thx for formbuilder – it is TOTALLY AWESOME

@Tobias – Agreed! There’s a limit to how flexible my script is, and for complex form layouts you are better off rolling your own.

@Jonathan: Well that might be one way, but I found it not worth the effort. the script is nice if you need what it does, so I still use it now and then but for more “complicated” forms, i’ll stick to my own forms.

@Tobias – I can’t immediately think of a way to achieve what you want. You should be able to style individual fields via CSS, since each field has an id – for instance you could make the postcode field shorter. But targeting field labels would be trickier. If you used javascript (maybe jquery) you might be able to attach CSS classes to specific label, dd or dt elements and wrestle more control over the way they are styled.
