InputfieldPage::addClass() method

Add a CSS class name (extends Inputfield::addClass)

If given a class name that’s already present, it won’t be added again.

Formatted string option (3.0.204+):
Classes can be added by formatted string that dictates what Inputfield element they should be added to, in the format element:classNames like in this example below:

Each line represents a group containing an element name and one or more space-separated classes. Groups may be separated by newline (like above) or with a comma. The element name may be any one of the following:

  • wrap: The .Inputfield element that wraps the header and content
  • header: The .InputfieldHeader element, typically a <label>.
  • content: The .InputfieldContent element that wraps the input(s), typically a <div>.
  • input: The primary <input> element(s) that accept input for the Inputfield.
  • class: This is the same as the 'input' type, just an alias.

Class names prefixed with a minus sign i.e. -class will be removed rather than added.

Examples

// Add class "foobar" to input element
$inputfield->addClass('foobar');

// Add three classes to input element
$inputfield->addClass('foo bar baz');

// Add class "foobar" to .Inputfield wrapping element
$inputfield->addClass('foobar', 'wrapClass');

// Add classes while specifying Inputfield element (3.0.204+)
$inputfield->addClass('wrap:card, header:card-header, content:card-body'); 
wrap:card card-default
header:card-header
content:card-body
input:form-input input-checkbox

Usage

// basic usage
$inputfieldPage = $inputfieldPage->addClass($class);

// usage with all arguments
$inputfieldPage = $inputfieldPage->addClass($class, string $property = 'class');
