Read the whole story:
- Frank Ralf/Moodle forms1
- Frank Ralf/Moodle forms2 aka Frank Ralf/Semantic HTML5
- Moodle forms - A peek under the hood
Moodle forms - A peek under the hood
Inspired by this forum discussion ("Interface design input please") I dug a little deeper into the way Moodle creates and handles forms.
For the JavaScript part of that discussion see Frank Ralf/JavaScript1.
We will use some helper styles to see what's going on under the hood of Moodle forms. See Stylish for some of them.
The code
We recreate a form similar to the one in the above mentioned forum discussion. This is just a textarea field with a save button put inside a table, nothing fancy.
$mform =& $this->_form;
$table_html = '
'
.''
.'Select student Comment entered Comment Student Alpha Yes ';
$mform->addElement('html', $table_html);
$mform->addElement('textarea');
$this->add_action_buttons(false);
$mform->addElement('html', '
');
