=head1 NAME

Rose::HTML::Form::Field::OptionGroup - Object representation of a group of options in a pop-up menu or select box in an HTML form.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    $field =
      Rose::HTML::Form::Field::OptionGroup->new(
        name  => 'fruits',
        label => 'Fruits');

    $field->options(apple  => 'Apple',
                    orange => 'Orange',
                    grape  => 'Grape');

    print $field->html;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

L<Rose::HTML::Form::Field::OptionGroup> is an object representation of a group of options in a pop-up menu or select box in an HTML form.  Yes, this is the often-overlooked (and sometimes ill-supported) "optgroup" HTML tag.

This class inherits from, and follows the conventions of, L<Rose::HTML::Form::Field>. Inherited methods that are not overridden will not be documented a second time here.  See the L<Rose::HTML::Form::Field> documentation for more information.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=over 4

=item B<new PARAMS>

Constructs a new L<Rose::HTML::Form::Field::OptionGroup> object based on PARAMS, where PARAMS are name/value pairs.  Any object method is a valid parameter name.

=back

=head1 OBJECT METHODS

=over 4

=item B<add_option OPTION>

Convenience alias for L<add_options()|/add_options>.

=item B<add_options OPTIONS>

Adds options to the option group.  OPTIONS may be a reference to a hash of value/label pairs, a reference to an array of values, or a list of L<Rose::HTML::Form::Field::Option> objects. Passing an odd number of items in the value/label argument list causes a fatal error.  Options passed as a hash reference are sorted by the keys of the hash according to the default behavior of Perl's built-in L<sort()|perlfunc/sort> function.  Options are added to the end of the existing list of options.

=item B<choices [OPTIONS]>

This is an alias for the L<options|/options> method.

=item B<has_value VALUE>

Returns true if VALUE is selected in the option group, false otherwise.

=item B<label [VALUE]>

Get or set the value of the "label" HTML attribute.

=item B<labels [LABELS]>

Get or set the labels for all values.  If LABELS is a reference to a hash or a list of value/label pairs, then LABELS replaces all existing labels.  Passing an odd number of items in the list version of LABELS causes a fatal error.

Returns a hash of value/label pairs in list context, or a reference to a hash in scalar context.

=item B<option VALUE>

Returns the first option (according to the order that they are returned from L<options()|/options>) whose "value" HTML attribute is VALUE, or undef if no such option exists.

=item B<options OPTIONS>

Get or set the full list of options in the pop-up menu.  OPTIONS may be a reference to a hash of value/label pairs, a reference to an array of values, or a list of L<Rose::HTML::Form::Field::Option> objects. Passing an odd number of items in the value/label argument list causes a fatal error. Options passed as a hash reference are sorted by the keys of the hash according to the default behavior of Perl's built-in L<sort()|perlfunc/sort> function.

To set an ordered list of option values along with labels in the constructor, use both the L<options()|/options> and L<labels()|/labels> methods in the correct order. Example:

    $field =
      Rose::HTML::Form::Field::OptionGroup->new(
        name    => 'fruits',
        options => [ 'apple', 'pear' ],
        labels  => { apple => 'Apple', pear => 'Pear' });

Remember that methods are called in the order that they appear in the constructor arguments (see the L<Rose::Object> documentation), so L<options()|/options> will be called before L<labels()|/labels> in the example above.  This is important; it will not work in the opposite order.

Returns a list of the pop-up menu's L<Rose::HTML::Form::Field::Option> objects in list context, or a reference to an array of the same in scalar context. These are the actual objects used in the field. Modifying them will modify the field itself.

=item B<value_label>

Returns the label of the first selected value (according to the order that they are returned by L<internal_value()|Rose::HTML::Form::Field/internal_value>), or the value itself if it has no label. If no value is selected, undef is returned.
