Styling Form

You can change the appearance of a Form.

Related sample: Form. Styling (custom CSS)

Follow these steps:

• Add one or more CSS classes with the settings you need. Place them in the <style> section of your HTML page or in a separate stylesheet, and include that file on the page:

<style>
    .my_first_class {
        /*some styles*/
    }
    
    .my_second_class {
        /*some styles*/
    }
</style>

• Specify the name of the class you created (or several names separated by spaces) as the value of the css property in the Form configuration:

const form = new dhx.Form("form_container", {
    css:"my_first_class my_second_class"
});

For example:

<style>
    .custom {
        --dhx-background-primary: rgb(238, 238, 238);
        --dhx-color-primary: #118d8d;
        --dhx-color-primary-active: #118d8d;
        --dhx-color-primary-hover: #1ad1d1;
    }
</style>

<script>
    const form = new dhx.Form("form_container", {
        padding: 40,
        width: 400,
        css: "custom",
        rows: [
            {
                type: "input",
                label: "Name",
                placeholder: "John Doe",
            },
            {
                type: "input",
                label: "Email",
                placeholder: "jd@mail.name"
            },
            // more controls
        ]
    });
</script>

Styling Form controls

You can also style individual Form controls with the css option in the control configuration object.

<style>
    .custom {
        --dhx-background-primary: rgb(238, 238, 238);
        --dhx-color-primary: #118d8d;
        --dhx-color-primary-active: #118d8d;
        --dhx-color-primary-hover: #1ad1d1;
    }
    .name {
        --dhx-color-primary-active: #d1b81a;
    }
</style>

<script>
    const form = new dhx.Form("form_container", {
        padding: 40,
        width: 400,
        css: "custom",
        rows: [
            {    
                css: "name",
                type: "input",
                label: "Name",
                placeholder: "John Doe"
            },
            {
                type: "input",
                label: "Email",
                placeholder: "jd@mail.name"
            },
            // more controls
        ]
    });
</script>
