    None

METHODS

ddlb (false, name, data, field name,...) -> HTML drop-down list box
ddlb (widget | false, name, data, [field name => label],...)

Generate input helper drop-down list box HTML. Optional 'widget' parameter (html, '$_' placeholder, any other string or empty value), is used only to be placed after some javascript may be generated. Name is used as the common part of names of the HTML widgets - submits, scrolling_list, buttons, which names are generated by appending '_' sign and suffix. Data may be array ref with list of values, hash ref with internal and external values, sub{} to produce above. Other arguments are field names to fill with values. Field names with leading "\t" corresponds to multivalue fields, leading "\tmsab\t" hints to try Microsoft Address Book before if possible.

fsdir ( name, edit?, allow edit?, files path, URL, ?filesystemURL, ?rows, ?cols )

Generate filesystem directory editor HTML. This may be IE HTML IFRAME tag pointed to filesystem, URLs, or filefield for upload files and checkboxes to delete. Name is used as the common part of names of the HTML widgets. 'index.html' or 'index.htm' file may be embedded below file list when view mode.

textarea (-name=>...,-arows=>min, -hrefs=>1,...) -> textarea HTML

Like CGI::textarea call, but with additional attributes: -arows=>min autosizes widget to it's content. -hrefs=>1 searches HTML hyperlinks in content and displays them, special URL protocols may be used and translated: 'host://' -> '/', 'url://' -> relative script name. -htmlopt=>1 is to autodetect and use in view mode HTML data format, it is ignored (deleted).

textfield (-name=>..., -asize=>min) -> textfield HTML

Like CGI::textfield call, but with additional attributes: -asize=>min autosizes widget to it's content.
