symfony1 - Symfony 1.4 Form Templating -

i'm working on installation of symfony 1.4 we've needed re-skin match new company branding. 1 of requirements of new skin radio buttons have following syntax -

<label><input name="foo" type="radio" value="bar" id="foo_bar"><span></span></label> 

however default symfony code radio buttons -

<input name="foo" type="radio" value="bar" id="foo_bar"> 

where template can change add additional elements surround input tag? i've searched high , low through code , can't seem find code being generated.

thanks in advance!

you'll need create custom widget class. i've extended radio widget , changed formatter functionality.

you might need customise little. below mywidgetformselectradio class wrap each radio field in label you've specified.

// \lib\widget\mywidgetformselectradio.class.php class mywidgetformselectradio extends sfwidgetformselectradio {   protected function formatchoices($name, $value, $choices, $attributes)   {     $inputs = array();     foreach ($choices $key => $option)     {       $baseattributes = array(         'name'  => substr($name, 0, -2),         'type'  => 'radio',         'value' => self::escapeonce($key),         'id'    => $id = $this->generateid($name, self::escapeonce($key)),       );        if (strval($key) == strval($value === false ? 0 : $value))       {         $baseattributes['checked'] = 'checked';       }        $inputs[] = array(         'input' => $this->rendercontenttag('label', $this->rendertag('input', array_merge($baseattributes, $attributes)), array('for' => $id)),       );     }      return call_user_func($this->getoption('formatter'), $this, $inputs);   }    public function formatter($widget, $inputs)   {     $rows = array();     foreach ($inputs $input)     {       $rows[] = $input['input'].$this->getoption('label_separator');     }      return implode($this->getoption('separator'), $rows);   } } 

then in form classes

// \lib\form\myform.class.php public function configure() {     $this->widgetschema['my_field'] = new mywidgetformselectradio(array('choices' => $choices));      // .... } 

are using twitter bootstrap chance? if so, you'll want extend symfony checkbox widget well. if might want extend sfwidgetformchoice class , change getrenderer() method uses mywidgetformselectradio , mywidgetformselectcheckbox class when rendering radio/checkbox fields.

// \lib\widget\mywidgetformchoice.php class mywidgetformchoice extends sfwidgetformchoice {   public function getrenderer()   {     if ($this->getoption('renderer'))     {       return $this->getoption('renderer');     }      $prefix = $this->getoption('use_my_custom_widget') ? 'my' : 'sf';      if (!$class = $this->getoption('renderer_class'))     {       $type = !$this->getoption('expanded') ? '' : ($this->getoption('multiple') ? 'checkbox' : 'radio');       $class = sprintf($prefix . 'widgetformselect%s', ucfirst($type));     }      return new $class(array_merge(array('choices' => new sfcallable(array($this, 'getchoices'))), $this->options['renderer_options']), $this->getattributes());   } } 

then in form class

public function configure() {     $this->widgetschema['my_field'] = new mywidgetformchoice(array(          'choices' => $choices,          'expanded' => true,          'use_my_custom_widget' => true,     ));      // .... }
