README

Corn Wand is a PHP functional library for generating HTML.

Documentation

All functions have a DocBlock. So you can read the source code or generate documentation with phpDocumentor.

Requirements

PHP 5.3 or higher

Source Code

The project is on GitHub. The actual source code is in a single file.

Tests

All tests are in the test directory. Each test is a standalone PHP script. There is a test for each function; the name of the test script is the function name. Some tag functions don't have tests.

Installation

Install using composer:

{
    "require": {
        "corn-wand/corn-wand": "0.5.1",
    }
}

or you can install manually:

require 'corn-wand.php';

Tag Functions

There's a function for each HTML tag. Here's the list of supported tags:

a, abbr, address, area, article, aside, audio, b, base, bdi, bdo, blockquote, body, br, button, canvas, caption, cite, code, col, colgroup, content, data, datalist, dd, decorator, del, details, dfn, div, dl, dt, element, em, embed, fieldset, figcaption, figure, footer, form, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, head, header, hr, html, i, iframe, img, input, ins, kbd, keygen, label, legend, li, link, main, map, mark, math, menu, menuitem, meta, meter, nav, noscript, object, ol, optgroup, option, output, p, param, pre, progress, q, rp, rt, ruby, s, samp, script, section, select, shadow, small, source, span, strong, style, sub, summary, sup, svg, table, tbody, td, template, textarea, tfoot, th, thead, time, title, tr, track, u, ul, var, video, wbr.

All tag function names are the name of the tag except for var. Use _var() instead. All the tag functions work the same way: if the first agrument is an array then it is the tag attributes. All other arguments are concatenated together to form the tag content. Examples:

echo c\br(); //<br/>
echo c\html(); //<html/>
echo c\p(); //<p/>

echo c\div('hello'); //<div>hello</div>

echo c\div(array('id' => 'hi')); //<div id="hi"/>

echo c\div(
    array('id' => 'hi'),
    'hello');

//<div id="hi">hello</div>

echo c\p('red ', 'yellow ', 'blue');

//<p>red yellow blue</p>

echo c\p(
    array('id' => 'colors'),
    'red ',
    'yellow ',
    'blue');

//<p id="colors">red yellow blue</p>

echo c\input(array(
    'id' => 'agree',
    'type' => 'checkbox',
    'checked'));

//<input id="agree" type="checkbox" checked/>

echo c\div(c\span('ok Dad'));

/*
<div>
    <span>ok Dad</span>
</div>
*/

echo 
c\ul(
    c\li('item 1'),
    c\li('item 2'),
    c\li('item 3'));

/*
<ul>
    <li>item 1</li>
    <li>item 2</li>
    <li>item 3</li>
</ul>
*/

echo
c\html(
    array('lang' => 'en'),
    c\head(
        c\title('My Page')),
    c\body(
        c\h1('My Page')));

/*
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <title>My Page</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>My Page</h1>
    </body>
</html>
*/

More Functions

There are many more functions. These functions return more intricate HTML.

html5()

html5() works like html() but has the HTML5 doctype in front:

echo c\html5(c\body('hi'));

/*
<!doctype html>
<html>
    <body>hi</body>
</html>
*/

hlink()

Get a hyperlink:

echo c\hlink('http://github.com');

//<a href="http://github.com">http://github.com</a>

echo c\hlink('http://github.com', 'GitHub');

//<a href="http://github.com">GitHub</a>

css() and js()

css() and js() work similarly:

echo c\css('one.css', 'two.css', 'three.css');

/*
<link rel="stylesheet" href="one.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="two.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="three.css"/>
*/

echo c\js('menu.js', 'game.js', 'slide-show.js');

/*
<script src="menu.js"></script>
<script src="game.js"></script>
<script src="slide-show.js"></script>
*/

You can use an array for these if you like:

$css = array('all.css', 'header.css', 'nav.css');
echo c\css($css);

/*
<link rel="stylesheet" href="all.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="header.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="nav.css"/>
*/

ulist() and olist()

Get <ul> or <ol> with items:

echo c\ulist('seven', 'six', 'five');

/*
<ul>
    <li>seven</li>
    <li>six</li>
    <li>five</li>
</ul>
*/

echo c\olist(
    'salsa',
    'bbq',
    'cheese',
    array('type' => 'i'));

/*
<ol type="i">
    <li>salsa</li>
    <li>bbq</li>
    <li>cheese</li>
</ol>
*/

You can use an array for the items:

$items = array('salsa', 'bbq', 'cheese');
echo c\olist(
    $items,
    array('type' => 'i'));

/*
<ol type="i">
    <li>salsa</li>
    <li>bbq</li>
    <li>cheese</li>
</ol>
*/

Use a nested array to set item attributes:

echo c\olist(array(
    'salsa',
    'bbq' => array('id' => 'mid'),
    'cheese'));

/*
<ol>
    <li>salsa</li>
    <li id="mid">bbq</li>
    <li>cheese</li>
</ol>
*/

focus()

Call JavaScript focus() on a CSS id:

echo c\focus('username');

//<script>document.getElementById('username').focus();</script>

linput() and dlinput()

linput() is for a label and an input:

echo c\linput(
    'First Name',
    array('value' => 'Fred'));

/*
<label>First Name</label>
<input value="Fred"/>
*/

Setting id will set other attributes:

echo c\linput(
    'First Name',
    array(
        'value' => 'Fred',
        'id' => 'first'));

/*
<label id="l_first" for="first">First Name</label>
<input value="Fred" id="first" name="first"/>
*/

dlinput() is the same but with a container div:

echo c\dlinput(
    'Email',
    array('id' => 'email'));

/*
<div id="c_email">
    <label id="l_email" for="email">Email</label>
    <input id="email" name="email"/>
</div>
*/

echo c\ltextarea(
    'Your Message',
    array('name' => 'message'));

/*
<label>Your Message</label>
<textarea name="message"></textarea>
*/

Setting id will set other attributes:

echo c\ltextarea(
    'Your Message',
    array('id' => 'message'),
    'Hello there');

/*
<label id="l_message" for="message">Your Message</label>
<textarea id="message" name="message">Hello there</textarea>
*/

dltextarea() is the same but with a container div:

echo c\dltextarea(
    'Your Message',
    array('id' => 'message'));
