Public Methods

public static InputElement as (Element elem)

Assert that the given Element is compatible with this class and automatically typecast it.

public final void click ()

Simulate a mouse-click. For INPUT elements whose type attribute has one of the following values: "button", "checkbox", "radio", "reset", or "submit".

public final String getAccept ()

A comma-separated list of content types that a server processing this form will handle correctly.

public final String getAccessKey ()

A single character access key to give access to the form control.

public final String getAlt ()

Alternate text for user agents not rendering the normal content of this element.

public final String getDefaultValue ()

When the type attribute of the element has the value "text", "file" or "password", this represents the HTML value attribute of the element. The value of this attribute does not change if the contents of the corresponding form control, in an interactive user agent, changes.

public final FormElement getForm ()

Returns the FORM element containing this control. Returns null if this control is not within the context of a form.

public final int getMaxLength ()

Maximum number of characters for text fields, when type has the value "text" or "password".

public final String getName ()

Form control or object name when submitted with a form.

public final int getSize ()

Size information. The precise meaning is specific to each type of field.

public final String getSrc ()

When the type attribute has the value "image", this attribute specifies the location of the image to be used to decorate the graphical submit button.

public final String getType ()

The type of control created (all lower case).

public final String getValue ()

When the type attribute of the element has the value "text", "file" or "password", this represents the current contents of the corresponding form control, in an interactive user agent. Changing this attribute changes the contents of the form control, but does not change the value of the HTML value attribute of the element. When the type attribute of the element has the value "button", "hidden", "submit", "reset", "image", "checkbox" or "radio", this represents the HTML value attribute of the element.

public final boolean isChecked ()

When the type attribute of the element has the value "radio" or "checkbox", this represents the current state of the form control, in an interactive user agent. Changes to this attribute change the state of the form control, but do not change the value of the HTML checked attribute of the INPUT element. Note: During the handling of a click event on an input element with a type attribute that has the value "radio" or "checkbox", some implementations may change the value of this property before the event is being dispatched in the document. If the default action of the event is canceled, the value of the property may be changed back to its original value. This means that the value of this property during the handling of click events is implementation dependent.

public final boolean isDefaultChecked ()

When type has the value "radio" or "checkbox", this represents the HTML checked attribute of the element. The value of this attribute does not change if the state of the corresponding form control, in an interactive user agent, changes.

public final boolean isDisabled ()

The control is unavailable in this context.

public final boolean isReadOnly ()

This control is read-only. Relevant only when type has the value "text" or "password".

public final void select ()

Select the contents of the text area. For INPUT elements whose type attribute has one of the following values: "text", "file", or "password".

public final void setAccept (String accept)

A comma-separated list of content types that a server processing this form will handle correctly.

public final void setAccessKey (String accessKey)

A single character access key to give access to the form control.

public final void setAlt (String alt)

Alternate text for user agents not rendering the normal content of this element.

public final void setChecked (boolean checked)

When the type attribute of the element has the value "radio" or "checkbox", this represents the current state of the form control, in an interactive user agent. Changes to this attribute change the state of the form control, but do not change the value of the HTML checked attribute of the INPUT element. Note: During the handling of a click event on an input element with a type attribute that has the value "radio" or "checkbox", some implementations may change the value of this property before the event is being dispatched in the document. If the default action of the event is canceled, the value of the property may be changed back to its original value. This means that the value of this property during the handling of click events is implementation dependent.

public final void setDefaultChecked (boolean defaultChecked)

When type has the value "radio" or "checkbox", this represents the HTML checked attribute of the element. The value of this attribute does not change if the state of the corresponding form control, in an interactive user agent, changes.

public final void setDefaultValue (String defaultValue)

When the type attribute of the element has the value "text", "file" or "password", this represents the HTML value attribute of the element. The value of this attribute does not change if the contents of the corresponding form control, in an interactive user agent, changes.

public final void setDisabled (boolean disabled)

The control is unavailable in this context.

public final void setMaxLength (int maxLength)

Maximum number of characters for text fields, when type has the value "text" or "password".

public final void setName (String name)

Use client-side image map.

public final void setValue (String value)

When the type attribute of the element has the value "text", "file" or "password", this represents the current contents of the corresponding form control, in an interactive user agent. Changing this attribute changes the contents of the form control, but does not change the value of the HTML value attribute of the element. When the type attribute of the element has the value "button", "hidden", "submit", "reset", "image", "checkbox" or "radio", this represents the HTML value attribute of the element.
