All the following function are built using the same pattern.

  • xxxs (eg checkboxes) return all the inputs of a certain type as a lazy sequence. For example, checkboxes myform will return all the checkboxes of the form
  • xxx_with take a CSS selector as parameter, and return the first input that matches the selector, or None if there isn't any. Eg, fields_with myform "[name$=text2]" will try to find any text field which name ends with text2
  • xxxs_with proceed as the previous one, but return a lazy sequence of all inputs matching the selector.
