NAME

Strehler::FormFu::Element::Category - FormFu Element for Strehler Category Selector.

DESCRIPTION

A FormFu element to encapsulate all the frontend logic for category selection. It's just a Block element with a particular configuration file hard-coded in it. Category selector needs to be identified in a clear way and needs a fixed structure because it has to interact with Strehler javascript library.

This element hasn't the standard HTML::FormFu elements namespace because it makes sense only in a Strehler system.

SYNOPSIS

In article form:

    - type: "+Strehler::FormFu::Element::Category"

No parameters, no labels.

    </div>

Options are inserted dinamically during form generation. Sub-category display attributed is managed by javascript.
