Many PHP developers are great specialists and know their way around PHP like the back of their hand. However, when a powerful framework like Symfony is built, it also includes software patterns and designs, which even the most experienced developers need to learn. This book is aimed to teach you exactly that. 

What is a web application without forms? Many of them will somehow deal with user input with the help of forms. Some can be easy, like a login form with just a username and password, and some of them are complex, ranging form dynamic forms based on previous user input, to multi-forms and wizards.

In this book we will talk in detail how the form component works internally and how to create simple forms, to even most complex types. We talk about writing your own form types, and dealing with the dynamic aspect of forms. Pretty much everything you will need, and more, will be described in this book. An absolute must for those working with forms, and those who want to understand the internals of the form components.

About the Symfony Rainbow Series:

These books are intended for PHP developers with any level of knowledge of Symfony, from beginner to expert. They are especially made for those developers, who work with or want to work with Symfony and want to also do their programming with Symfony as smartly and efficiently as possible. If you would like to learn exactly how the inner workings of Symfony function together as a framework or how to use the wide range of Symfony components in a standalone fashion, then these books are for you!
