Form — Zend Framework 2 2.4.2 documentation

FormΒΆ

The Form view helper is used to render a <form> HTML element and its attributes.

It iterates through all its elements and relies on the FormCollection and FormRow view helpers to render them appropriately.

You can also use Zend\Form\View\Helper\FormRow in conjunction with Form::openTag() and Form::closeTag() to have a more fine grained control over the output.

Basic usage:

 *
 * @var \Zend\View\Renderer\PhpRenderer $this
 * @var \Zend\Form\Form $form

echo $this->form($form);
// i.e.

//    <label>
//       <span>Some Label</span>
//       <input type="text" name="some_element" value="">
