NAME

CGI::Widget::Series - Class for making CGI series forms

SYNOPSIS

use CGI::Widget::Series;
my $series = CGI::Widget::Series->new(
                                       -length    => 10,
                                       -linebreak => 1,
                                      );
print $series;   #prints <form><table>...</form>

DESCRIPTION

This class allows you to create simple image-based gradi
ents for use in simple CGI forms. This class is intended
to be an aesthetically pleasing alternative to the clunky
HTML radio and select form types. For more information,
see CGI.

Constuctors

CGI::Widget::Series has only one constructor: new().

new() accepts the following parameters:

Parameter Purpose
-----------------------------------------------------------------length Number of element in the se

ries
break Insert <BR> tag after each

element
linebreak Insert linebreak after each

element
render A callback that returns the

HTML

for a defined position in the

series.
The position is passed as a

parameter.

Methods

Interpreted in a scalar context, the object is overloaded
to return the html for the series. Easy!

html() can also be called to produce the series html.

The remainder of the methods are of the same name as the
parameter passed to new(), minus the optional leading
dash. They are read/write-able.
