README

Yet another PHP library for creating and processing HTML forms (WIP).

How it's different?

• It is intended for quick, configuration driven creation of contact forms that are sent by email. It is not intended for creating editing forms for database records.

• Forms can either be defined by YAML configuration files (or by associative PHP arrays or any other format that can be turned into a PHP array) or programmatically using a fluent interface.

• Forms are rendered either in a customizable generic way or by replacing the form elements in an HTML template containing the whole form.

• Forms are processed using FormProcessors. Currently there is only a FormProcessor that sends the form by email using SwiftMailer but you can easily add your own form processor.

• Form elements are created using DOM and are returned as DOM objects. This way, Formlib does not depend on a particular templating system but it is possible to alter the form and its elements after creation by manipulation the DOM, e.g. by adding and altering attributes.

Dependencies

• symfony/yaml

• SwiftMailer

• HtmlPageDom for DOM manipulation which in turn builds upon Symfony's DomCrawler component
