ips.ui.stack

Description

The stack widget is a special form control which enables users to enter multiple values for a form field. In IPB 3.x, this was achieved by entering values in a textarea with each value on a new line. This widget is designed to make that functionality more user friendly.

Note: It is expected that the \IPS\Helpers\Form class will be used to build the HTML for stackable controls. Consult the documentation for the PHP class for more information.
