Class Details
[line 24]
Wraps a hidden input.
If you need to get some random data into the valueset of a form, this is, like in html, they way to go. This element, doesn't display, but only carries a value by the same means a text-input would, just without the editing possibilites.
Compiles and returns the html-fragment for the element.
InputHidden has a very reduced rendering, with things like css-classes and everything visual ignored. If you need them for whatever reason, you're doing something wrong. This element is for form-value-injection only.
Calculates the validity-status, based on the currently entered value, by applying the rules of a present validator. If there is none, the element is always valid.
