Can I put html inside a Symfony form button with Twig?

Question

I\'m trying to put html inside a form button with twig like:

{{ form_widget(form.jiraStatus, {
        \'label\': \'Bug\',         


        

Answer 1

this is how I solved and tested with Symfony 4. In twig template:

{{form_start(form)}}
{{form_widget(form)}}

    

        Save
        Cancel
    

{{form_end(form)}}

In my PHP controller form I did not add any button but just input fields.

   $form = $this->createFormBuilder($article)
        ->add('title',TextType::class, array(
            'data' => $article->getTitle(),
            'attr' => array('class' => 'form-control')))
        ->add('body', TextareaType::class, array(
            'data' => $article->getBody(),
            'required' => false,
            'attr' => array('class' => 'form-control')))
        ->getForm();

What I did to check the form submission is:

if($form->isSubmitted() ){
    if($request->request->get('create') && $form->isValid()){
        $article = $form->getData();
        $entityManager = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
        $entityManager->persist($article);
        $entityManager->flush();
    } //l'alternativa può solo essere il cancel
    return $this->redirectToRoute('article_list');    
}

Hope this can help. Good to say that even the problem of buttons alignment is solved because div is not added for every button as form add method does.
