React Form Controls

Form control

React input and textarea components. Give textual form controls like `<input>`s and `<textarea>`s an upgrade with custom styles, sizing, focus states, and more.

On this page

Example#

<CForm>
  <div className="mb-3">
    <CFormLabel htmlFor="exampleFormControlInput1">Email address</CFormLabel>
    <CFormInput type="email" id="exampleFormControlInput1" placeholder="[email protected]"/>
  </div>
  <div className="mb-3">
    <CFormLabel htmlFor="exampleFormControlTextarea1">Example textarea</CFormLabel>
    <CFormTextarea id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows={3}></CFormTextarea>
  </div>
</CForm>

Sizing#

Set heights using size property like size="lg" and size="sm".

<CFormInput type="text" size="lg" placeholder="Large input" aria-label="lg input example"/>
<CFormInput type="text" placeholder="Default input" aria-label="default input example"/>
<CFormInput type="text" size="sm" placeholder="Small input" aria-label="sm input example"/>

Disabled#

Add the disabled boolean attribute on an input to give it a grayed out appearance and remove pointer events.

<CFormInput type="text" placeholder="Disabled input" aria-label="Disabled input example" disabled/>
<CFormInput type="text" placeholder="Disabled readonly input" aria-label="Disabled input example" disabled readOnly/>

Readonly#

Add the readOnly boolean attribute on an input to prevent modification of the input's value. Read-only inputs appear lighter (just like disabled inputs), but retain the standard cursor.

<CFormInput type="text" placeholder="Readonly input here..." aria-label="readonly input example" readOnly/>

Readonly plain text#

If you want to have <input readonly> elements in your form styled as plain text, use the plainText boolean property to remove the default form field styling and preserve the correct margin and padding.

Password

<CRow className="mb-3">
  <CFormLabel htmlFor="staticEmail" className="col-sm-2 col-form-label">Email</CFormLabel>
  <CCol sm={10}>
    <CFormInput type="text" id="staticEmail" defaultValue="[email protected]" readOnly plainText/>
  </CCol>
</CRow>
<CRow className="mb-3">
  <CFormLabel htmlFor="inputPassword" className="col-sm-2 col-form-label">Password</CFormLabel>
  <CCol sm={10}>
    <CFormInput type="password" id="inputPassword"/>
  </CCol>
</CRow>

<CForm className="row g-3">
  <CCol xs="auto">
    <CFormLabel htmlFor="staticEmail2" className="visually-hidden">Email</CFormLabel>
    <CFormInput type="text" id="staticEmail2" defaultValue="[email protected]" readOnly plainText/>
  </CCol>
  <CCol xs="auto">
