Form Controls

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

Example

<div class="mb-3"><label for="exampleFormControlInput1" class="form-label">Email address</label><input type="email" class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlInput1" placeholder="name@example.com"></div><div class="mb-3"><label for="exampleFormControlTextarea1" class="form-label">Example textarea</label><textarea class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows="3"></textarea></div>

Sizing

Set heights using classes like .form-control-lgand .form-control-sm.

<input class="form-control form-control-lg" type="text" placeholder=".form-control-lg" aria-label=".form-control-lg example"><input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Default input" aria-label="default input example"><input class="form-control form-control-sm" type="text" placeholder=".form-control-sm" aria-label=".form-control-sm example">

Disabled

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

<input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Disabled input" aria-label="Disabled input example" disabled><input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Disabled readonly input" aria-label="Disabled input example" disabled readonly>

Readonly

Add the readonlyboolean 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.

<input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Readonly input here..." aria-label="readonly input example" readonly>

Readonly plain text

Add the readonlyboolean 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.

<div class="mb-3 row"><label for="staticEmail" class="col-sm-2 col-form-label">Email</label><div class="col-sm-10"><input type="text" readonly class="form-control-plaintext" id="staticEmail" value="email@example.com"></div></div><div class="mb-3 row"><label for="inputPassword" class="col-sm-2 col-form-label">Password</label><div class="col-sm-10"><input type="password" class="form-control" id="inputPassword"></div></div>
