Form controls

All generic form controls, designed for consistency

The following form controls classes are supported:

  • .label
  • .input
  • .textarea
  • .select
  • .checkbox
  • .radio
  • .button
  • .help

Each of them should be wrapped in a .control container.
When combining several controls in a form, use the .field class as a container, to keep the spacing consistent.

With icons

You can append one of 2 modifiers on a control:

  • has-icons-left
  • and/or has-icons-right

You also need to add a modifier on the icon:

  • icon is-left if has-icons-left is used
  • icon is-right if has-icons-right is used

The size of the input will define the size of the icon container.

<div class="field">
  <p class="control has-icons-left">
    <input class="input" type="email" placeholder="Email">
    <span class="icon is-small is-left">
      <i class="fa fa-envelope"></i>
    </span>
  </p>
</div>
<div class="field">
  <p class="control has-icons-left">
    <input class="input" type="password" placeholder="Password">
    <span class="icon is-small is-left">
      <i class="fa fa-lock"></i>
    </span>
  </p>
</div>
<div class="field">
  <p class="control">
    <button class="button is-success">
      Login
    </button>
  </p>
</div>

New! 0.4.2

You can now append icons to select dropdowns as well. 

<div class="field">
  <p class="control has-icons-left">
    <span class="select">
      <select>
        <option selected>Country</option>
        <option>Select dropdown</option>
        <option>With options</option>
      </select>
    </span>
    <span class="icon is-small is-left">
      <i class="fa fa-globe"></i>
    </span>
  </p>
</div>

If the control contains an icon, Bulma will make sure the icon remains centered, no matter the size of the input or of the icon. 

<div class="field">
  <label class="label is-small">Small input</label>
  <p class="control has-icons-left has-icons-right">

Form addons

If you want to attach controls together, use the has-addons modifier on the control container:

Search 

<div class="field has-addons">
  <p class="control">
    <input class="input" type="text" placeholder="Find a repository">
  </p>
  <p class="control">
    <a class="button is-info">
      Search
    </a>
  </p>
</div>

You can attach inputs, buttons, and dropdowns only.

New! 0.4.2

It can be useful to append a static button.

@gmail.com 

<div class="field has-addons">
  <p class="control">
    <input class="input" type="text" placeholder="Your email">
  </p>
  <p class="control">
    <a class="button is-static">
      @gmail.com
    </a>
  </p>
</div>

Use the is-expanded modifier on the element you want to fill up the remaining space (in this case, the input):

Transfer

Transfer 

<div class="field has-addons">
  <p class="control">
    <span class="select">
      <select>
        <option>$</option>
        <option>£</option>
        <option>€</option>
      </select>
    </span>
  </p>
  <p class="control">
    <input class="input" type="text" placeholder="Amount of money">
  </p>
  <p class="control">
    <a class="button">
      Transfer
    </a>
  </p>
</div>

<div class="field has-addons">
  <p class="control">
    <span class="select">
      <select>
        <option>$</option>
        <option>£</option>
        <option>€</option>
      </select>
    </span>
  </p>
  <p class="control is-expanded">

  </p>
  <p class="control">
    <a class="button">
      Transfer
    </a>
  </p>
</div>

If you want a full width select dropdown, pair control is-expanded with select is-fullwidth.

<div class="field has-addons">
  <p class="control is-expanded">
    <span class="select is-fullwidth">
      <select name="country">
        <option value="Argentina">Argentina</option>
        <option value="Bolivia">Bolivia</option>
        <option value="Brazil">Brazil</option>
        <option value="Chile">Chile</option>
        <option value="Colombia">Colombia</option>
        <option value="Ecuador">Ecuador</option>
        <option value="Guyana">Guyana</option>
        <option value="Paraguay">Paraguay</option>
        <option value="Peru">Peru</option>
        <option value="Suriname">Suriname</option>
        <option value="Uruguay">Uruguay</option>
        <option value="Venezuela">Venezuela</option>
      </select>
    </span>
  </p>
  <p class="control">
    <button type="submit" class="button is-primary">Choose</button>
  </p>
</div>

Use the has-addons-centered or the has-addons-right modifiers to alter the alignment.

Transfer 

<div class="field has-addons has-addons-centered">
  <p class="control">
    <span class="select">
      <select>

  <p class="control">

      Transfer
    </a>
  </p>
</div>

Form group

If you want to group controls together, use the is-grouped modifier on the control container.
Use the is-grouped-centered or the is-grouped-right modifiers to alter the alignment.

Add the is-expanded modifier on the control element you want to fill up the remaining space.

Search 

<div class="field is-grouped">
  <p class="control is-expanded">
    <input class="input" type="text" placeholder="Find a repository">
  </p>
  <p class="control">
    <a class="button is-info">
      Search
    </a>
  </p>
</div>

Horizontal form

If you want a horizontal form control, use the is-horizontal modifier on the field container, in which you include:

  • field-label for the side label
  • field-body for the input/select/textarea container

You can of course use is-grouped or has-addons for the child elements.

To preserve the vertical alignment of labels with each type and size of control, the .field-label comes with 4 size modifiers:

  • .is-small
  • .is-normal for any .input or .button
  • .is-medium
  • .is-large
