CGI::FormBuilder::Field::static - FormBuilder class for static fields

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use CGI::FormBuilder::Field;

    # delegated straight from FormBuilder
    my $f = CGI::FormBuilder::Field->new($form,
                                         name => 'whatever',
                                         type => 'static');

# The majority of this module's methods (including new) are
# inherited directly from ::base, since they involve things
# which are common, such as parameter parsing. The only methods
# that are individual to different fields are those that affect
# the rendering, such as script() and tag()

sub script {
    return '';        # static fields get no messages
}

    # way to handle multiple form values of the same name
    # (i.e., multiple <input> or <hidden> fields)

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module is used to create B<FormBuilder> elements of a specific type.
Currently, each type module inherits all of its methods from the main
L<CGI::FormBuilder::Field> module except for C<tag()> and C<script()>,
which affect the XHMTL representation of the field.

Please refer to L<CGI::FormBuilder::Field> and L<CGI::FormBuilder> for
documentation.
