The Form library is a complete replacement for the Form helper. It reads an XML document and converts it to an array (via the Xml_Library).
2006-12-08:
- New version, some API changes (options in dropdowns are reversed from previous order!)
- Entire library has been cleaned up and optimized a bit
- Now integrates with the Uploader library to allow the creation of upload forms
2006-11-06:
- is no longer needed, validation rules are used to find required fields
- Changed several bits, parse by fieldsets
- Changed the format of form templates
2006-11-04:
- Made validate() set the form values, no need to set them manually
- Tweaked the valid types and attributes
- Built in validation using CI Validation
- 1 call data retrieval
- XHTML 1.0 output code
- written for PHP5 (not PHP4 compatible)
