trusty (3) HTMLDocument.addLocalForm.3kaya.gz

Provided by: kaya_0.4.4-6ubuntu3_amd64 bug

NAME

       HTMLDocument::addLocalForm - Add a form for the current application

SYNOPSIS

       ElementTree addLocalForm( ElementTree parent, Bool fileupload=false )

ARGUMENTS

       parent The parent element

       fileupload  Does  this particular form allow file uploads. This argument can be omitted, for a default of
       disallowing them. Note that WebCommon.allowFileUploads (3kaya)  must  also  be  called  for  this  to  be
       successfully enabled.

DESCRIPTION

       This  adds  a  form that points to the current web application to call a named function. You then need to
       use HTMLDocument.addLocalControlInput (3kaya) to choose the function to call.

       If you are using mod_rewrite in Apache, or other methods of rewriting URLs at the webserver  level,  then
       you may need to call setAttribute(form,"action",rewritten) , as Kaya cannot know about this URL rewriting
       layer.

       Note that in HTML form input controls may not be placed directly inside a form - you must add block-level
       elements  to  the  form  and add controls to those elements. The fieldset element is especially suited to
       this and the HTMLDocument.addFieldset (3kaya) function handles this.
