# Provides a set of methods for working with forms and especially forms related to objects assigned to the template.
# The following is an example of a complete form for a person object that works for both creates and updates built
# with all the form helpers. The <tt>@person</tt> object was assigned by an action on the controller:
# <form action="save_person" method="post">
# Name:
# <%= text_field "person", "name", "size" => 20 %>
#
# Password:
# <%= password_field "person", "password", "maxsize" => 20 %>
#
# Single?:
# <%= check_box "person", "single" %>
#
# Description:
# <%= text_area "person", "description", "cols" => 20 %>
#
# <input type="submit" value="Save">
# </form>
#
# ...is compiled to:
#
# <form action="save_person" method="post">
# Name:
# <input type="text" id="person_name" name="person[name]"
# size="20" value="<%= @person.name %>" />
#
# Password:
# <input type="password" id="person_password" name="person[password]"
# size="20" maxsize="20" value="<%= @person.password %>" />
#
# Single?:
# <input type="checkbox" id="person_single" name="person[single] value="1" />
#
# Description:
# <textarea cols="20" rows="40" id="person_description" name="person[description]">
# <%= @person.description %>
# </textarea>
#
# <input type="submit" value="Save">
# </form>
#
# There's also methods for helping to build form tags in link:classes/ActionView/Helpers/FormOptionsHelper.html,
# link:classes/ActionView/Helpers/DateHelper.html, and link:classes/ActionView/Helpers/ActiveRecordHelper.html
module FormHelper
# Returns an input tag of the "text" type tailored for accessing a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object
# assigned to the template (identified by +object+). Additional options on the input tag can be passed as a
# hash with +options+.
#
# Examples (call, result):
# text_field("post", "title", "size" => 20)
# <input type="text" id="post_title" name="post[title]" size="20" value="#{@post.title}" />
def text_field(object, method, options = {})

# Works just like text_field, but returns a input tag of the "password" type instead.
def password_field(object, method, options = {})
InstanceTag.new(object, method, self).to_input_field_tag("password", options)
end

InstanceTag.new(object, method, self).to_input_field_tag("hidden", options)
end
# Returns a textarea opening and closing tag set tailored for accessing a specified attribute (identified by +method+)
# on an object assigned to the template (identified by +object+). Additional options on the input tag can be passed as a
# hash with +options+.
#
# Example (call, result):
# text_area("post", "body", "cols" => 20, "rows" => 40)
# <textarea cols="20" rows="40" id="post_body" name="post[body]">
# #{@post.body}
# </textarea>
def text_area(object, method, options = {})
InstanceTag.new(object, method, self).to_text_area_tag(options)
end
# Returns a checkbox tag tailored for accessing a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object
# assigned to the template (identified by +object+). It's intended that +method+ returns an integer and if that
# integer is above zero, then the checkbox is checked. Additional options on the input tag can be passed as a
# hash with +options+. The +checked_value+ defaults to 1 while the default +unchecked_value+
# is set to 0 which is convenient for boolean values. Usually unchecked checkboxes don't post anything.
# We work around this problem by adding a hidden value with the same name as the checkbox.
#
# Example (call, result). Imagine that @post.validated? returns 1:
# check_box("post", "validated")
# <input type="checkbox" id="post_validate" name="post[validated] value="1" checked="checked" /><input name="post[validated]" type="hidden" value="0" />
#
# Example (call, result). Imagine that @puppy.gooddog returns no:
# check_box("puppy", "gooddog", {}, "yes", "no")
# <input type="checkbox" id="puppy_gooddog" name="puppy[gooddog] value="yes" /><input name="puppy[gooddog]" type="hidden" value="no" />
def check_box(object, method, options = {}, checked_value = "1", unchecked_value = "0")
InstanceTag.new(object, method, self).to_check_box_tag(options, checked_value, unchecked_value)
end
# Returns a radio button tag for accessing a specified attribute (identified by +method+) on an object
# assigned to the template (identified by +object+). If the current value of +method+ is +tag_value+ the
# radio button will be checked. Additional options on the input tag can be passed as a
# hash with +options+.
# Example (call, result). Imagine that @post.category returns "rails":
# radio_button("post", "category", "rails")
# radio_button("post", "category", "java")
# <input type="radio" id="post_category" name="post[category] value="rails" checked="checked" />
# <input type="radio" id="post_category" name="post[category] value="java" />
