+    #
+    # Options:
+    #
+    # * :as - override the input type (eg force a :string to render as a :password field)
+    # * :label - use something other than the method name as the label text, when false no label is printed
+    # * :required - specify if the column is required (true) or not (false)
+    # * :hint - provide some text to hint or help the user provide the correct information for a field
+    # * :input_html - provide options that will be passed down to the generated input
+    # * :wrapper_html - provide options that will be passed down to the li wrapper
+    #
+    # Input Types:
+    #
+    # Most inputs map directly to one of ActiveRecord's column types by default (eg string_input),
+    # but there are a few special cases and some simplification (:integer, :float and :decimal
+    # columns all map to a single numeric_input, for example).
+    #
+    # * :select (a select menu for associations) - default to association names
+    # * :check_boxes (a set of check_box inputs for associations) - alternative to :select has_many and has_and_belongs_to_many associations
+    # * :radio (a set of radio inputs for associations) - alternative to :select belongs_to associations
+    # * :time_zone (a select menu with time zones)
+    # * :password (a password input) - default for :string column types with 'password' in the method name
+    # * :text (a textarea) - default for :text column types
+    # * :date (a date select) - default for :date column types
+    # * :datetime (a date and time select) - default for :datetime and :timestamp column types
+    # * :time (a time select) - default for :time column types
+    # * :boolean (a checkbox) - default for :boolean column types (you can also have booleans as :select and :radio)
+    # * :string (a text field) - default for :string column types
+    # * :numeric (a text field, like string) - default for :integer, :float and :decimal column types
+    # * :country (a select menu of country names) - requires a country_select plugin to be installed
+    # * :hidden (a hidden field) - creates a hidden field (added for compatibility)

+    # called either with a block (in which you can do the usual Rails form stuff, HTML, ERB, etc),
+    # or with a list of fields.  These two examples are functionally equivalent:
+    #
+    #   # With a block:
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |form| %>
+    #     <% form.inputs do %>
+    #       <%= form.input :title %>
+    #       <%= form.input :body %>
+    #     <% end %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    #   # With a list of fields:
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |form| %>
+    #     <%= form.inputs :title, :body %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    #   # Output:
+    #   <form ...>
+    #     <fieldset class="inputs">
+    #       <ol>
+    #         <li class="string">...</li>
+    #         <li class="text">...</li>
+    #       </ol>
+    #     </fieldset>
+    #   </form>
+    #
+    # === Quick Forms
+    #
+    # When called without a block or a field list, an input is rendered for each column in the
+    # model's database table, just like Rails' scaffolding.  You'll obviously want more control
+    # than this in a production application, but it's a great way to get started, then come back
+    # later to customise the form with a field list or a block of inputs.  Example:
+    #
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |form| %>
+    #     <%= form.inputs %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    # === Options
+    #
+    # All options (with the exception of :name) are passed down to the fieldset as HTML
+    # attributes (id, class, style, etc).  If provided, the :name option is passed into a
+    # legend tag inside the fieldset (otherwise a legend is not generated).
+    #
+    #   # With a block:
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |form| %>
+    #     <% form.inputs :name => "Create a new post", :style => "border:1px;" do %>
+    #       ...
+    #     <% end %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    #   # With a list (the options must come after the field list):
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |form| %>
+    #     <%= form.inputs :title, :body, :name => "Create a new post", :style => "border:1px;" %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    # === It's basically a fieldset!
+    #
+    # Instead of hard-coding fieldsets & legends into your form to logically group related fields,
+    # use inputs:
+    #
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |f| %>
+    #     <% f.inputs do %>
+    #       <%= f.input :title %>
+    #       <%= f.input :body %>
+    #     <% end %>
+    #     <% f.inputs :name => "Advanced", :id => "advanced" do %>
+    #       <%= f.input :created_at %>
+    #       <%= f.input :user_id, :label => "Author" %>
+    #     <% end %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    #   # Output:
+    #   <form ...>
+    #     <fieldset class="inputs">
+    #       <ol>
+    #         <li class="string">...</li>
+    #         <li class="text">...</li>
+    #       </ol>
+    #     </fieldset>
+    #     <fieldset class="inputs" id="advanced">
+    #       <legend><span>Advanced</span></legend>
+    #       <ol>
+    #         <li class="datetime">...</li>
+    #         <li class="select">...</li>
+    #       </ol>
+    #     </fieldset>
+    #   </form>
+    #
+    # === Nested attributes
+    #
+    # As in Rails, you can use semantic_fields_for to nest attributes:
+    #
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |form| %>
+    #     <%= form.inputs :title, :body %>
+    #
+    #     <% form.semantic_fields_for :author, @bob do |author_form| %>
+    #       <% author_form.inputs do %>
+    #         <%= author_form.input :first_name, :required => false %>
+    #         <%= author_form.input :last_name %>
+    #       <% end %>
+    #     <% end %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    # But this does not look formtastic! This is equivalent:
+    #
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |form| %>
+    #     <%= form.inputs :title, :body %>
+    #     <% form.inputs :for => [ :author, @bob ] do |author_form| %>
+    #       <%= author_form.input :first_name, :required => false %>
+    #       <%= author_form.input :last_name %>
+    #     <% end %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    # And if you don't need to give options to your input call, you could do it
+    # in just one line:
+    #
+    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |form| %>
+    #     <%= form.inputs :title, :body %>
+    #     <%= form.inputs :first_name, :last_name, :for => @bob %>
+    #   <% end %>
+    #
+    # Just remember that calling inputs generates a new fieldset to wrap your
+    # inputs. If you have two separate models, but, semantically, on the page
+    # they are part of the same fieldset, you should use semantic_fields_for
+    # instead (just as you would do with Rails' form builder).
