PHP Form Builder Class | Examples

Buttons - The list provided below identifies sevaral areas where the button element differs from other element types within this project.

Using this project's default stylesheet, Buttons will always be rendered right-aligned on their own line separate from other elements.
Consecutive buttons will be rendered horizontally in the same line.
When using the "map" form attribute, buttons don't affect the the number of elements that are to be rendered on each line.

See the jQuery example file for more information on how the "jqueryUI" and "jqueryUIButtons" attributes can be used to leverage jQueryUI's button widget functionality. Below, you will find several ways of how you can use this project's addButton function in your development.
