...
instance. A form consist of a sequence of inputs that usually have names, and which can take on various values. The following methods are available: =over 4 =item $form = HTML::Form->new($method, $action_uri, [[$enctype], $input,...]) The constructor takes a $method and a $uri as argument. The $enctype and and initial inputs are optional. You will normally use HTML::Form->parse() to create new HTML::Form objects. =cut sub new { my $class = shift; my $self = bless {}, $class; $self->{method} = uc(shift || "GET"); $self->{action} = shift || Carp::croak("No action defined"); $self->{enctype} = shift || "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"; $self->{inputs} = [@_]; $self; } =item @forms = HTML::Form->parse($html_document, $base_uri) The parse() class method will parse an HTML document and build up C objects for each
found. If called in scalar context only returns the first . Returns an empty list if there are no forms to be found. The $base_uri is (usually) the URI used to access the $html_document. It is needed to resolve relative action URIs. For LWP this parameter is obtained from the $response->base() method. =cut sub parse { my($class, $html, $base_uri) = @_; require HTML::TokeParser; my $p = HTML::TokeParser->new(\$html); my @forms; my $f; # current form while (my $t = $p->get_tag) { my($tag,$attr) = @$t; if ($tag eq "form") { my $action = $attr->{'action'}; $action = "" unless defined $action; $action = URI->new_abs($action, $base_uri); $f = $class->new($attr->{'method'}, $action, $attr->{'enctype'}); push(@forms, $f); while (my $t = $p->get_tag) { my($tag, $attr) = @$t; last if $tag eq "/form"; if ($tag eq "input") { my $type = delete $attr->{type} || "text"; $f->push_input($type, $attr); } elsif ($tag eq "textarea") { $attr->{textarea_value} = $attr->{value} if exists $attr->{value}; my $text = $p->get_text("/textarea"); $attr->{value} = $text; $f->push_input("textarea", $attr); } elsif ($tag eq "select") { $attr->{select_value} = $attr->{value} if exists $attr->{value}; while ($t = $p->get_tag) { my $tag = shift @$t; last if $tag eq "/select"; next if $tag =~ m,/?optgroup,; next if $tag eq "/option"; if ($tag eq "option") { my %a = (%$attr, %{$t->[0]}); $a{value} = $p->get_trimmed_text unless defined $a{value}; $f->push_input("option", \%a); } else { Carp::carp("Bad HTML tags, we also have "textarea" and "option". The $no is the sequence number of the input with the indicated $name and/or $type (where 1 is the first). =cut sub find_input { my($self, $name, $type, $no) = @_; $no ||= 1; for (@{$self->{'inputs'}}) { if (defined $name) { next unless exists $_->{name}; next if $name ne $_->{name}; } next if $type && $type ne $_->{type}; next if --$no; return $_; } return; } sub fixup { my $self = shift; for (@{$self->{'inputs'}}) { $_->fixup; } } =item $form->value($name, [$value]) The value() method can be used to get/set the value of some input. If no input have the indicated name, then this method will croak. =cut sub value { my $self = shift; my $key = shift; my $input = $self->find_input($key); Carp::croak("No such field '$key'") unless $input; local $Carp::CarpLevel = 1; $input->value(@_); } =item $form->try_others(\&callback) This method will iterate over all permutations of unvisited enumerated values ( or C), with the indicated $name, if specified. You can optinally specify a coordinate clicked, which only makes a difference if you clicked on an image. The default coordinate is (1,1). =cut sub click { my $self = shift; my $name; $name = shift if (@_ % 2) == 1; # odd number of arguments # try to find first submit button to activate for (@{$self->{'inputs'}}) { next unless $_->can("click"); next if $name && $_->name ne $name; return $_->click($self, @_); } Carp::croak("No clickable input with name $name") if $name; $self->make_request; } =item $form->form Returns the current setting as a sequence of key/value pairs. =cut sub form { my $self = shift; map {$_->form_name_value} @{$self->{'inputs'}}; } =item $form->dump Returns a textual representation of the form. Mainly useful for debugging. If called in void context, then the dump is printed on STDERR. =cut sub dump { my $self = shift; my $method = $self->{'method'}; my $uri = $self->{'action'}; my $enctype = $self->{'enctype'}; my $dump = "$method $uri"; $dump .= " ($enctype)" if $enctype eq "application/xxx-www-form-urlencoded"; $dump .= "\n"; for ($self->inputs) { $dump .= " " . $_->dump . "\n"; } print STDERR $dump unless defined wantarray; $dump; } #--------------------------------------------------- package HTML::Form::Input; =back =head1 INPUTS An C contains a sequence of inputs. References to the inputs can be obtained with the $form->inputs or $form->find_input methods. Once you have such a reference, then one of the following methods can be used on it: =over 4 =cut sub new { my $class = shift; my $self = bless {@_}, $class; $self; } sub add_to_form { my($self, $form) = @_; push(@{$form->{'inputs'}}, $self); $self; } sub fixup {} =item $input->type Returns the type of this input. Types are stuff like "text", "password", "hidden", "textarea", "image", "submit", "radio", "checkbox", "option"... =cut sub type { shift->{type}; } =item $input->name([$new]) =item $input->value([$new]) These methods can be used to set/get the current name or value of an input. If the input only can take an enumerated list of values, then it is an error to try to set it to something else and the method will croak if you try. =cut sub name { my $self = shift; my $old = $self->{name}; $self->{name} = shift if @_; $old; } sub value { my $self = shift; my $old = $self->{value}; $self->{value} = shift if @_; $old; } =item $input->possible_values Returns a list of all values that and input can take. For inputs that does not have discrete values this returns an empty list. =cut sub possible_values { return; } =item $input->other_possible_values Returns a list of all values not tried yet. =cut sub other_possible_values { return; } =item $input->form_name_value Returns a (possible empty) list of key/value pairs that should be incorporated in the form value from this input. =cut sub form_name_value { my $self = shift; my $name = $self->{'name'}; return unless defined $name; my $value = $self->value; return unless defined $value; return ($name => $value); } sub dump { my $self = shift; my $name = $self->name; $name = "" unless defined $name; my $value = $self->value; $value = "" unless defined $value; my $dump = "$name=$value"; my $type = $self->type; return $dump if $type eq "text"; $type = ($type eq "text") ?
