One of the things that my HTML coders keep telling me about formfu is
that they want to create "block" elements that can be nested. A simple
example is something like
- type: block
tag: div
elements:
- type: block
tag: span
content: foo
that would produce <div><span>foo</span></div> taking this further, it
would be nice if you can specify a text block of sorts:
- type: block
tag: div
elements:
- type: plaintext
content: foo
- type: block
tag: span
content: bar
- type: plaintext
content: baz
Which would produce <div>foo<span>bar</span>baz</div>
This would mainly be used to generate HTML content that goes within a
form, like warnings or notes about the form inputs.
Does this sound reasonable?
I've changed the templates so that if the block's tag() is undef, the
start and end tags aren't rendered.
I've also added a new 'src' element which is a subclass of block.pm,
and it simply undef's the tag() for you.
You can use it's inherited content(), content_xml() and elements()
methods as usual.
So your example could be written like so:
- type: block
tag: div
elements:
- type: src
content: foo
- type: block
tag: span
content: bar
- type: src
content: baz
Cheers,
