The only way I know if to get access to the form object is through
onQuickFormEvent.
class HTML_QuickForm_myEl extends HTML_QuickForm_element {
//other stuff
var $_formName;
function onQuickFormEvent($event, $arg, &$caller) {
switch ($event) {
case 'createElement':
$this->_formName = $caller->getAttribute($name);
return true;
default:
return parent::onQuickFormEvent($event, $arg, $caller);
}
}
}
