com.numobjects.beans.InputField

public class InputField

implements java.io.Serializable

Input Field is essentially a combination of a label and a text field. In 99% of the cases when you would want to use a text field, you would use a label with it to indicate the name for the value in the field. Therefore it is natural to combine Name and Value. The resulting combination is the InputField. Here are some of its features.

Prompt

If the value field is empty it displays a prompt like "Enter value here". The prompt string can be set at any time.

Separator

By default the InputField has a separator between the label and the field. This separator is adjustable. Simply drag it with the mouse to wherever you like. The label text and the field text adjust accordingly.
