HTML::O...ieldSet(3)

📦 version 0.6.0, in alpine 3.24

💖 HTML::O...ieldSet(3) 💖

okay so real talk: this page is from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and it's the manpage for HTML::Object::DOM::Element::FieldSet — the manual name gets squished down to HTML::O...ieldSet(3) in the header but we know exactly what it is, bestie 💅

✨ NAME ✨

HTML::Object::DOM::Element::FieldSet — HTML Object DOM Field Set Class 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use HTML::Object::DOM::Element::FieldSet;
my $set = HTML::Object::DOM::Element::FieldSet->new ||
    die( HTML::Object::DOM::Element::FieldSet->error, "\n" );

✨ VERSION ✨

v0.2.1 🦋

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

This interface gives you the special properties and methods — and lowkey it's beyond the regular HTML::Object::Element interface, which it also has available to it by inheritance, no cap — for manipulating the layout and presentation of "<fieldset"> elements. 🌸

✨ INHERITANCE ✨

the family tree is giving royal lineage, honestly 👑

✨ PROPERTIES ✨

Inherits properties from its parent HTML::Object::DOM::Element 💫

🔒 disabled

🌸 elements

Read-only. 🔥

The form elements https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFormElement/elements belonging to this field set. It returns a collection object of such elements found inside the fieldset.

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/elements, see this docu also for list of form elements https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/form#see_also

📋 form

Read-only. 👀

An HTML::Object::DOM::Element::Form object referencing the containing form element, if this element is in a form, otherwise it returns undef.

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/form

🏷️ name

A string reflecting the name HTML attribute, containing the name of the field set. This can be used when accessing the field set in JavaScript. It is not part of the data which is sent to the server. 🫶

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/name

⭐ type

Read-only. ✨

Returns the string "fieldset" as a scalar object.

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/type

💬 validationMessage

A string representing a localized message that describes the validation constraints that the element does not satisfy (if any). This is the empty string if the element is not a candidate for constraint validation (willValidate is false), or it satisfies its constraints.

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/validationMessage

🧚 validity

A HTML::Object::DOM::ValidityState representing the validity states that this element is in.

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/validity

🚫 willValidate

A boolean value false, because <fieldset> objects are never candidates for constraint validation. periodt. 💀

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/willValidate

✨ METHODS ✨

Inherits methods from its parent HTML::Object::DOM::Element 🌈

✅ checkValidity

Set or get a boolean value, because under perl it does not do any checks.

Normally, under JavaScript, this always returns true because <fieldset> objects are never candidates for constraint validation.

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/checkValidity

📢 reportValidity

Set or get a boolean value, because under perl it does not do any checks.

Normally, under JavaScript, this always returns true because <fieldset> objects are never candidates for constraint validation.

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/reportValidity

🎀 setCustomValidity

Sets a custom validity message for the field set. If this message is not the empty string, then the field set is suffering from a custom validity error, and does not validate. 😭

See also Mozilla documentation https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFieldSetElement/setCustomValidity
