Form Function

Just wanted some thoughts on the the efficiency of this function

PHP Code:


			
    function FormGenerate($frmname,$to,$values=array(),$echo=false,$len='30',$submitto='',$special=array())

        {

            //set up the form and create the action

                        $submit = !empty($submitto) ? "onSubmit='".$submitto."'" : '';

            $data = '<form name="'.$frmname.'" method="post" action="'.$this->siteinfo['url'] . $to.'" '.$submit.'>

                        <table>';

            

                     

                        $tag = reset(array_keys($special));

                        $rep = reset($special);

            //start the loop, this method is supposed to be more efficient

            while(list(, $v) = each($values))

            { 



                $type = ($v == $tag) ? $rep : 'text';

                //create the table and such

                $data .= '

                    <tr>

                <td><label for="'.$v.'">'.$v.'</label><td>

                            <td><input name="'.$v.'" id="'.$v.'" value="" size="'.$len.'" maxlength="255" type="'.$type.'"></td>

                    </tr>';

                               $tag = sizeof(array_keys($special)) > 1 ? next(array_keys($special)) : $tag;

                               $rep = sizeof($special) > 1 ? next($special) : $rep;                                    

            }

            

            //finish it all off

            $data .= '<tr><td><input value="submit" type="submit"></td></tr></table>'; 

            

            //return it all

            if($echo) { echo($data); }else{ return $data; }

        }
