# CakePHP Split Form Helper

This helper allows you to break apart multi-selects, checkbox groups, and radio groups into multiple places on the page.

If you've ever wanted something like:

> __[ ] Choice A__

> This choice would give you lots of options such as:

> - Long hair

> - Youthful vigor

> - STDs

>

> __[ ] Choice B__

> This is the wrong choice. People who select it are:

> - Morons

> - Short

> - Have ED

This allows you to add content in between the form inputs. You can also separate inputs into small groups.

> __Fruits:__

> - ( ) Apple

> - ( ) Orange 

> - ( ) Pair

> __Vegatables:__

> - ( ) Cabbage

> - ( ) Carrots

> - ( ) Potatoes

## How to use

1. Clone/Download to plugins/split_form

2. Add the helper to your controller 

var $helpers = array('SplitForm.SplitForm');

3. Set the view variable in the controller 

$this->set('categories', $this->Post->Category->find('list'));

4. Call the method:

#### For one specific value

echo $this->SplitForm->input('Category', 7);


#### For multiple inputs

echo $this->SplitForm->input('Category', array(3, 2, 6, 7));


#### Advanced options

echo $this->SplitForm->input('Category', array(

	3 => 'Category 3', 

	2 => array('label' => 'Category 2', 'class' => 'special')

), array('legend' => 'Category group 1'));
