Overview

Default decorator for form contents (list of form fields). Decorates all entries of form to <ul> element, setting CSS class ‘form_field’. To use your own field decorator, derive it from Aurita::GUI::Element (maybe indirectly via one of its derivates) and define its constructor to expect a list of Form_Field instances as content attribute (either in params or as block). The content decorator has to wrap the actual array of form fields.

See the source code of Aurita::GUI::Form_Content_Wrapper for a simple implementation.

Tell a form to use a specific content decorator by 

the_form.content_decorator = My_Content_Decorator

To use your own implementation as defaut, overload Form.initialize like

class My_Form < Aurita::GUI::Form
  def initialize(params={}, &block)
    super(params, &block)
    @content_decorator = My_Content_Decorator
  emd
end

Or write a factory (*hint hint*) like: 

class Form_Factory
  def self.form(params={}, &block)
    form = Aurita::GUI::Form.new(params, &block)
    form.content_decorator = My_Content_Decorator
    return form
  end
end

See also: Form_Field_Wrapper (pretty much the same).
