Lithium form class have amazing comments.

You should try something like this:

<?php
echo $this->form->create(null);
echo $this->form->field(
    'name',
    [
        'template' => '<div{:wrap}><span><i class="some OtherClass"></i></span>{:input}</div>',
        'wrap' => ['class' => 'SomeClass'],
    ]
);
echo $this->form->error('name', null, ['template' => '<h4 class="error">{:content}</h4>']);
echo $this->form->end();
?>

Hi, thank you very much for your response. I also wan to to pass some OtherClass when creating the element... – obinoob Apr 27 '15 at 11:17
String replace on the template variable. – fedeisas Apr 27 '15 at 12:05
Sorry can you give an example? – obinoob Apr 27 '15 at 12:10
You can't do that replacement with Li3 Form class. You have two choices: extend `Form` class and override `field()` method. Or use that class in you template as a variables: `'template' => '
{:input}
',`. – fedeisas Apr 27 '15 at 12:52
