Form Item component

About

The vf-form__item is a wrapping div for form inputs.

Usage

You should use a vf-form__item to wrap each form input.

It is used to wrap any of the inputs along with the related vf-form__label and also can take the vf-form__helper and vf-form__helper--error content as well.

The contents of the vf-form__item should be coded in a specifc way to match consistency across products. For example, for the vf-form__input items it should look like this:

<div class="vf-form__item vf-stack">

    <label for="text" class="vf-form__label vf-form__label--required">
        Form Label
        <span class="vf-u-sr-only">this field is required.</span>
        <svg class="vf-icon vf-icon--asterick" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 24 24">
            <title>asterick</title>
            <path d="M23.555,8.729a1.505,1.505,0,0,0-1.406-.98H16.062a.5.5,0,0,1-.472-.334L13.405,1.222a1.5,1.5,0,0,0-2.81,0l-.005.016L8.41,7.415a.5.5,0,0,1-.471.334H1.85A1.5,1.5,0,0,0,.887,10.4l5.184,4.3a.5.5,0,0,1,.155.543L4.048,21.774a1.5,1.5,0,0,0,2.31,1.684l5.346-3.92a.5.5,0,0,1,.591,0l5.344,3.919a1.5,1.5,0,0,0,2.312-1.683l-2.178-6.535a.5.5,0,0,1,.155-.543l5.194-4.306A1.5,1.5,0,0,0,23.555,8.729Z" />
        </svg>
    </label>

    <p class="vf-form__helper">Form helper text</p>
