Author

Formitable is a PHP class used to ease the creation of submit-ready HTML forms from MySQL database tables. It analyzes the fields of a given table and outputs the best input type for each (e.g. enum type becomes radio buttons or select, set type becomes checkboxes or multiselect). Data is automatically inserted into the table upon form submission. Features include:
# Output a complete form in a few lines of code
# Validate data via regular expressions and provide custom feedback
# Run an arbitrary function against any value to modify or validate
# Support for normalized data/lookup tables
# Easily retrieve and update existing records
# Customize all aspects of output, integrate forms into your layout
# Full CSS styling
# Output the form from a template to ease custom layouts
# Accessibility support such as labels, fieldsets, legends and more
# Outputs attributes such as MAXLENGTH to reflect your table design
# Easy integration into templating systems

Running the Example Script (Formitable_demo.php): 1) Use phpMyAdmin or the MySQL prompt to execute MySQL_dump.sql on a database of your choice. 2) Open Formitable_demo.php in your favorite text editor and change the username, password and DB vars. 3) Don't change any file names, run the example script. 4) Fill out the form and submit it. 5) If step 4 is successful, run the script again appending "?ID=1" to the URL to retrieve and update your new record.
