HTML::FormFu::Element::ComboBox - Select / Text hybrid
version 2.04
--- elements: - type: ComboBox name: answer label: 'Select yes or no, or write an alternative:' values: - yes - no
Creates a multi element containing a Select field and a Text field.
A ComboBox element named foo would result in a Select menu named foo_select and a Text field named foo_text. The names can instead be overridden by the name value in "select" and "text".
foo
foo_select
foo_text
name
If a value is submitted for the Text field, this will be used in preference to any submitted value for the Select menu.
You can access the submitted value by using the ComboBox's name:
my $value = $form->param_value('foo');
If the value matches one of the Select menu's options, that options will be selected. Otherwise, the Text field will use the value as its default.

Although this element inherits from HTML::FormFu::Element::Block, its behaviour for the methods filter/filters, constraint/constraints, inflator/inflators, validator/validators and transformer/transformers is more like that of a field element, meaning all processors are added directly to the date element, not to its child elements.
This element's get_elements and get_all_elements are inherited from HTML::FormFu::Element::Block, and so have the same behaviour. However, it overrides the get_fields|HTML::FormFu/get_fields method, such that it returns both itself and its child elements.
get_fields|HTML::FormFu/get_fields
Is a sub-class of, and inherits methods from HTML::FormFu::Element::Multi, HTML::FormFu::Element::Block, HTML::FormFu::Element
