For XHTML Input
The eZ XML output uses <strong> and <em> by default, respecting the semantic XHTML notation.
Input object API
Input object is intended as a vector for different input formats. It should accept input value in a foreign format and convert it to the Field Type's internal format.
It should implement abstract eZ\Publish\Core\FieldType\XmlText\Input class, which defines only one method:
| Method | Description |
|---|
getInternalRepresentation | The method should return the input value in the internal format. |
At the moment there is only one implementation of the Input class, eZ\Publish\Core\FieldType\XmlText\Input\EzXml, which accepts input value in the internal format, and therefore only performs validation of the input value.
Value object API
eZ\Publish\Core\FieldType\XmlText\Value offers following properties:
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|
xml | DOMDocument | Internal format value as an instance of DOMDocument. |
Validation
Validation of the internal format is performed in the eZ\Publish\Core\FieldType\XmlText\Input\EzXml class.
