Once composer has installed the library, simply include the standard composer autoloader in to your code.

Usage Examples

// Make Form refers to formz/Form
use formz\Form;

//Open form
Form::open("/somthing")->attributes(array("class"=>"test"))->render(true);

// Create a required text field with default value of "bob"**
Form::text("name")
 	->attributes(array('required'=>'required'))
 	->defaultValue("Bob")
 	->render(true);

// Select box with list of cows, css class cow_selector 
// and default selection of Dexter**
Form::select("cow")
	->options(array(
		'A' => 'Angus',
		'D' => 'Dexter',
		'J' => 'Jersey',
		'H' => 'Holstein'
	))
	->attributes(array('class'=> 'cow_selector'))
	->defaultValue('D')
	->render(true);

Form::close()->render(true);

You can have the form automatically populated from post data by calling the following before the form methods

Form::populate($_POST);
