14 * Individual fields used for data entry / viewing.
16 * This object is not really intended to be used directly. The more normal
17 * interface is to instantiate an {@link EntryForm} and then issue calls
18 * to {@link DataEntryLine()} and other {@link EntryForm} methods.
20 * Understanding the operation of this class (and possibly auditing the source
21 * code, particularly {@link EntryField::Render}) will however convey valuable
22 * understanding of some of the more
25 * @todo This class doesn't really provide a huge amount of utility between construct
26 * and render, but there must be good things possible there. Perhaps one EntryField
27 * is created and used repeatedly as a template (e.g.). That might be useful to
28 * support... Why is this a Class anyway? Maybe we should have just done half a
29 * dozen functions (one per major field type) and just used those... Maybe we should
30 * build a base class for this and extend it to make EntryField in a better way.
32 * EntryField is only useful at present if you desperately want to use it's simple
33 * field interface, but want to intimately control the layout (or parts of the layout),
34 * otherwise you should be using {@link EntryForm} as the main class.
44 * The name of the field
50 * The type of entry field
66 * An array of key value pairs
72 * Once it actually is...
79 * Initialise an EntryField, used for data entry.
81 * The following types of fields are possible:
83 * <li>select - Will display a select list of the keys/values in $attributes where the
84 * key starts with an underscore. The key will have the '_' removed before being used
85 * as the key in the list. All the $attributes with keys not beginning with '_' will
86 * be used in the normal manner as HTML attributes within the <select ...> tag.</li>
87 * <li>lookup - Will display a select list of values from the database.
88 * If $attributes defines a '_sql' attibute then that will be used to make
89 * the list, otherwise the database values will be from the 'codes' table
90 * as in "SELECT code_id, code_value FROM codes WHERE code_type = '_type' ORDER BY code_seq, code_id"
91 * using the value of $attributes['_type'] as the code_type.</li>
92 * <li>date - Will be a text field, expecting a date value which might be
93 * javascript validated at some point in the future.</li>
94 * <li>checkbox - Will display a checkbox for an on-off value.</li>
95 * <li>textarea - Will display an HTML textarea.</li>
96 * <li>file - Will display a file browse / enter field.</li>
97 * <li>button - Will display a button field.</li>
98 * <li>password - Password entry. This will display entered data as asterisks.</li>
101 * The $attributes array is useful to set specific HTML attributes within the HTML tag
102 * used for the entry field however $attribute keys named starting with an underscore ('_')
103 * affect the field operation rather than the HTML. For the 'select' field type, these are
104 * simply used as the keys / values for the selection (with the '_' removed), but other
105 * cases are more complex:
107 * <li>_help - While this will be ignored by the EntryField::Render() method the _help
108 * should be assigned (or will be assigned the same value as the 'title' attribute) and
109 * will (depending on the data-entry line format in force) be displayed as help for the
110 * field by the EntryForm::DataEntryLine() method.</li>
111 * <li>_sql - When used in a 'lookup' field this controls the SQL to return keys/values
112 * for the list. The actual SQL should return two columns, the first will be used for
113 * the key and the second for the displayed value.</li>
114 * <li>_type - When used in a 'lookup' field this defines the codes type used.</li>
115 * <li>_null - When used in a 'lookup' field this will control the description for an
116 * option using a '' key value which will precede the list of values from the database.</li>
117 * <li>_zero - When used in a 'lookup' field this will control the description for an
118 * option using a '0' key value which will precede the list of values from the database.</li>
119 * <li>_label - When used in a 'radio' or 'checkbox' field this will wrap the field
120 * with an HTML label tag as <label ...><input field...>$attributes['_label']</label></li>
124 * @param text $intype The type of field:
125 * select | lookup | date | checkbox | textarea | file | button | password
126 * (anything else is dealt with as "text")
128 * @param text $inname The name of the field.
130 * @param text $attributes An associative array of extra attributes to be applied
131 * to the field. Optional, but generally important. Some $attribute keys have
132 * special meaning, while others are simply added as HTML attributes to the field.
134 * @param text $current_value The current value to use to initialise the
137 function EntryField( $intype, $inname, $attributes="", $current_value="" )
139 $this->ftype
