Description: ------------ I have made a couple of changes that allow you to use the second parameter of HTML_QuickForm::freeze() to set whether it is persistant or not. That way people can easily say for all elements: I do _not_ want persistant freeze for _all_ elements, rather than calling it on all elements. This is really useful with the smarty renderer, when you want to use one template/page for viewing and editing. Test script: --------------- $form =& new HTML_Quickform; $foo =& $form->addElement(...); $bar =& $form->addElement(...); // more elements... if (!$edit_mode) { // We are not editing this time. We want to freeze the // elements of the form and _not_ print out the hidden // elements that contain the values $form->freeze(null, false); } Expected result: ---------------- Only the values of all of the elements will be printed when they are rendered, _not_ the hidden elements (because we are using false for second parameter, true is the default).

I will send the patch or paste it here if you want this feature.

Moving feature requests to HTML_QuickForm2.

This is essentially a duplicate of request #4137 HTML_QuickForm2_Container class (already in CVS) handles freezing / unfreezing / changing persistent freeze behaviour of its contained elements. As Form class will inherit from Container, we may consider the feature request implemented. :)
