/**
* Adds an control to the form.
*
* Do not instantiate this class directly! Use the {@link Zebra_Form::add() add()} method instead!
*
*
* // create a new form
* $form = new Zebra_Form('my_form');
*
* // add a text control to the form
* $obj = $form->add('text', 'my_text');
*
* // don't forget to always call this method before rendering the form
* if ($form->validate()) {
* // put code here
* }
*
* // output the form using an automatically generated template
* $form->render();
*
*
* @param string $id Unique name to identify the control in the form.
*
* The control's name attribute will be the same as the id attribute!
*
* This is the name to be used when referring to the control's value in the
* POST/GET superglobals, after the form is submitted.
*
* This is also the name of the variable to be used in custom template files, in
* order to display the control.
*
*
* // in a template file, in order to print the generated HTML
* // for a control named "my_text", one would use:
* echo $my_text;
*
*
* @param string $default (Optional) Default value of the text box.
*
* @param array $attributes (Optional) An array of attributes valid for
* {@link http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#h-17.4 input}
* controls (size, readonly, style, etc)
*
* Must be specified as an associative array, in the form of attribute => value.
*
* // setting the "readonly" attribute
* $obj = $form->add(
* 'text',
* 'my_text',
* '',
* array(
* 'readonly' => 'readonly'
* )
* );
*
*
* There's a special data-prefix attribute that you can use to add uneditable
* prefixes to input fields (text, images, or plain HTML), as seen in the image
* below. It works by injecting an absolutely positioned element into the DOM, right
* after the parent element, and then positioning it on the left side of the parent
* element and adjusting the width and the left padding of the parent element, so it
* looks like the prefix is part of the parent element.
*
* If the prefix is plain text or HTML code, it will be contained in a
tag
* having the class Zebra_Form_Input_Prefix; if the prefix is a path to an
* image, it will be an tag having the class Zebra_Form_Input_Prefix.
*
* For anything other than plain text, you must use CSS to set the width and
* height of the prefix, or it will not be correctly positioned because when the image
* is not cached by the browser the code taking care of centering the image will
* be executed before the image is loaded by the browser and it will not know the
* image's width and height!
*
* {@img src=../media/zebra-form-prefix.jpg class=graphic}
*
*
* // add simple text
* // style the text through the Zebra_Form_Input_Prefix class
* $form->add('text', 'my_text', '', array('data-prefix' => 'http://'));
* $form->add('text', 'my_text', '', array('data-prefix' => '(+1 917)'));
*
* // add images
* // set the image's width and height through the img.Zebra_Form_Input_Prefix class
* // in your CSS or the image will not be correctly positioned!
* $form->add('text', 'my_text', '', array('data-prefix' => 'img:path/to/image'));
*
* // add html - useful when using sprites
* // again, make sure that you set somewhere the width and height of the prefix!
* $form->add('text', 'my_text', '', array('data-prefix' => ''));
* $form->add('text', 'my_text', '', array('data-prefix' => ''));
*
*
* See {@link Zebra_Form_Control::set_attributes() set_attributes()} on how to set
* attributes, other than through the constructor.
*
* The following attributes are automatically set when the control is created and
* should not be altered manually:
*
* type, id, name, value, class
*
* @return void
