Sometimes you need to change size (length) in html form elements input. In symfony you can do this in form configure function by using:
$this->widgetSchema[‘yourinputfield’] = new sfWidgetFormInput(array(),array(‘size’ => ‘8’,));
or by:
$this->widgetSchema[‘yourinputfield’]->setAttribute(‘size’, ‘8’);
Second version is more readable for me.
Have a nice day! 🙂
