public static function RenderElement::preRenderAjaxForm

public static RenderElement::preRenderAjaxForm($element)

  • #ajax['event']
  • #ajax['prevent']
  • #ajax['url']
  • #ajax['callback']
  • #ajax['options']
  • #ajax['wrapper']
  • #ajax['parameters']
  • #ajax['effect']
  • #ajax['accepts']

Return value

array The processed element with the necessary JavaScript attached to it.
