Methods summary

`public`	# `__construct( FormField::$name $name, FormField::$title $title = null, FormField::$value $optionsURL, FormField::$form $value = "", TextField::$maxLength $maxLength = null )` Returns an input field, class="text" and type="text" with an optional maxlength Returns an input field, class="text" and type="text" with an optional maxlength Parameters `$name` name The internal field name, passed to forms. `$title` title The field label. `$optionsURL` value The value of the field. `$value` form Reference to the container form `$maxLength` maxLength The Maximum length of the attribute Overrides `TextField::__construct`
`public String`	# `extraClass( )` Compiles all CSS-classes. Optionally includes a "nolabel"-class if no title was set on the formfield.

Optionally includes a "nolabel"-class if no title was set on the formfield. Uses `FormField::Message()` and `FormField::MessageType()` to add validatoin error classes which can be used to style the contained tags. Returns `String` CSS-classnames Overrides `FormField::extraClass`
`public`	# `Field( )` Returns the form field - used by templates. Although FieldHolder is generally what is inserted into templates, all of the field holder templates make use of $Field. It's expected that FieldHolder will give you the "complete" representation of the field on the form, whereas Field will give you the core editing widget, such as an input tag. Returns the form field - used by templates. Although FieldHolder is generally what is inserted into templates, all of the field holder templates make use of $Field. It's expected that FieldHolder will give you the "complete" representation of the field on the form, whereas Field will give you the core editing widget, such as an input tag. Our base FormField class just returns a span containing the value. This should be overridden! Overrides `TextField::Field`
`public`	# `FieldHolder( )` Returns a "Field Holder" for this field - used by templates. Forms are constructed from by concatenating a number of these field holders. The default field holder is a label and form field inside a paragraph tag. Returns a "Field Holder" for this field - used by templates. Forms are constructed from by concatenating a number of these field holders. The default field holder is a label and form field inside a paragraph tag. Composite fields can override FieldHolder to create whatever visual effects you like. It's a good idea to put the actual HTML for field holders into templates. The default field holder is the DefaultFieldHolder template. This lets you override the HTML for specific sites, if it's necessary. Overrides `FormField::FieldHolder`
