HTML::FormFu::Element:UserbContributed Perl HTML::FormFu::Element::ComboBox(3)NAMEHTML::FormFu::Element::ComboBox - Select / Text hybrid
SYNOPSIS---
elements:
- type: ComboBox
name: answer
label: 'Select yes or no, or write an alternative:'
values:
- yes
- no
DESCRIPTION
Creates a multi element containing a Select field and a Text field.
A ComboBox element named "foo" would result in a Select menu named
"foo_select" and a Text field named "foo_text". The names can instead
be overridden by the "name" value in "select" and "text".
If a value is submitted for the Text field, this will be used in
preference to any submitted value for the Select menu.
You can access the submitted value by using the ComboBox's name:
my $value = $form->param_value('foo');
METHODS
default
If the value matches one of the Select menu's options, that options
will be selected. Otherwise, the Text field will use the value as its
default.

CAVEATS
Although this element inherits from HTML::FormFu::Element::Block, its
behaviour for the methods filter/filters, constraint/constraints,
inflator/inflators, validator/validators and transformer/transformers
is more like that of a field element, meaning all processors are added
directly to the date element, not to its child elements.
This element's get_elements and get_all_elements are inherited from
HTML::FormFu::Element::Block, and so have the same behaviour. However,
it overrides the "get_fields|HTML::FormFu/get_fields" method, such that
it returns both itself and its child elements.
