lithium\template\Helper::attributes()

public method

Converts a set of parameters to HTML attributes into a string.

Parameters

  • array|string $params

    The parameters where key is the attribute name and the value the attribute value. When string will simply prepend with the prepend-string (by default ' ') unless $params is falsey in which case an empty string is returned. This alternative syntax is used by the method internally.
  • string $method

    When used as a context handler, the method the handler was called for I.e. 'wrap'. Currently not used by the method.
  • array $options

    Available options are:

    • 'escape' boolean: Indicates whether the output should be HTML-escaped. Defaults to true.
    • 'prepend' string: String to prepend to each attribute pair and the final result. Defaults to ' '.
    • 'append' string: String to append to result. Defaults to ''.

Returns

string

Attribute string.
