Class: ButtonInputWidget

.ui.ButtonInputWidget(configopt)

new ButtonInputWidget(configopt)

ButtonInputWidget is used to submit HTML forms and is intended to be used within a OO.ui.FormLayout. If you do not need the button to work with HTML forms, you probably want to use OO.ui.ButtonWidget instead. Button input widgets can be rendered as either an HTML <button> (the default) or an HTML <input> tags. See the [OOjs UI documentation on MediaWiki] [1] for more information.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
config Object <optional>

Configuration options

Properties
Name Type Attributes Default Description
type string <optional>
'button'

The value of the HTML 'type' attribute: 'button', 'submit' or 'reset'.

useInputTag boolean <optional>
false

Use an <input> tag instead of a <button> tag, the default. Widgets configured to be an <input> do not support icons and indicators, non-plaintext labels, or values. In general, useInputTag should only be set to true when there’s need to support IE 6 in a form with multiple buttons.

simulateLabelClick()

Simulate the behavior of clicking on a label (a HTML <label> element) bound to this input. HTML only allows <label> to act on specific "labelable" elements; complex widgets might need to override this method to provide intuitive, accessible behavior.

This method is called by OO.ui.LabelWidget and OO.ui.FieldLayout. It should not be called directly.
