Forms have been an integral part of any interactive site since the dawn of time — they promote interactivity and are usually the most common way users interact with a site. It's commonplace that when a form is submitted (input), the website will take 'action' and do something with the data (processing) and then provide a user with the result (output). Symphony provides this logic layer via events.

This tutorial assumes you have a basic understanding of how events work in Symphony (if not, this may be a good introduction) and are semi-comfortable writing some PHP code. I'll be showing you some of the lesser-known features of Symphony events, including event priority, event chaining, and a brief demonstration of how to write a custom event. The difficulty level progresses as we go through, but with any luck you'll be able to learn a thing or two :)

Getting Started

All:
- Indent work with tabs. No spaces unless lining up variables or objects vertically.
- View your whitespace and make sure your editor cleans it up.
- Use UTF-8 encoding with UNIX line endings. No exceptions.

CSS:
- Indent your CSS to denote selector is a child of or extends the previous selector. Comment extensions.
- Name classes sensibly using hyphens if necessary. No CamelCase.
- Order properties sensibly - 1. layout 2. text 3. backgrounds - is a common pattern.
- No inline hacks or parsing bugs; put it in to the right stylesheet.
