Color

Zend\Form\Element\Color is meant to be paired with the Zend\Form\View\Helper\FormColor for HTML5 inputs with type color. This element adds filters and a Regex validator to it’s input filter specification in order to validate a HTML5 valid simple color value on the server.

Basic Usage

This element automatically adds a "type" attribute of value "color".

use Zend\Form\Element;
use Zend\Form\Form;

$color = new Element\Color('color');
$color->setLabel('Background color');

$form = new Form('my-form');
$form->add($color);

Here is the same example using the array notation:

 use Zend\Form\Form;

 $form = new Form('my-form');
 $form->add(array(
     'type' => 'Zend\Form\Element\Color',
     'name' => 'color',
     'options' => array(
             'label' => 'Background color'
     )
 ));
