Re: Re: QF2 - setTemplateClass for radios?

Ok so I think part of the problem is that the radios are in a group, but I'm still having problems setting the template:

For reference, the algorithm Default Renderer uses to search for templates *is* documented: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.html.html-quickform2.renderers.php

Here's my group code: $boxGroup = $form->addElement( 'group', 'gender' )->setLabel( 'Choose gender' );

I'd suggest not giving a name to this group but giving an explicit id: $boxGroup = $form->addElement('group')->setLabel('Choose gender')->setId('gender');

         $boxGroup->addElement( 'radio', 'gender', array( 'value' =>

'male' ) )->setContent( 'Male' );

         $boxGroup->addElement( 'radio', 'gender', array( 'value' =>

'female' ) )->setContent( 'Female' );

         $boxGroup->addRule( 'required', 'Please choose gender' );

Here's my code to try and set template: $renderer->setElementTemplateForGroupClass( 'gender', 'HTML_QuickForm2_Element_InputRadio', $defaultTemplate );

And here you should use setElementTemplateForGroupId(), since you want to set a template for radios in a specific group rather than in all groups: $renderer->setElementTemplateForGroupId('gender', 'HTML_QuickForm2_Element_InputRadio', $defaultTemplate); Yeah, I know that groups need more documentation. It's on my todo list.

So this should be silly easy but the two options I tried didn't work, I'm trying to set the template for radio buttons: $renderer->setTemplateForClass( 'HTML_QuickForm2_Element_InputRadio', $defaultTemplate ); And I can't figure out what value I should use, I tried HTML_QuickForm2_Element_InputRadio and HTML_QuickForm2_Element_Radio. What do I use?
