This class was designed together with the content repository class ::xo::db::CrClass for the generation of HTML forms, but it can be used also with different classes. The only hard requirement is the presence of an 'item_id' form field. For generic acs_objects, 'item_id' will correspond to 'object_id' column in 'acs_objects' table. For content repository items, 'item_id' will be the column by the same name in cr_revisions/cr_items.

Switches:

-add_page_title (optional)

page title when adding content items

-edit_page_title (optional)

page title when editing content items

-data (optional)

data object (e.g. instance if CrItem)

-folder_id (optional)

associated folder id. Will default to data's 'parent_id' variable. If 'parent_id' is missing too, package's 'folder_id' will be used.

-name (optional)

name of the form, used for naming the template, defaults to the object name

-package_id (optional)

package_id of the object. Will default to data's 'package_id' variable

-submit_link (optional)

link for page after submit

-with_categories (optional)

display form with categories (default false)
