I think my question was not clear actually...
What I'm doing is inheriting standard CakePHP FormHelper to generate HTML
form with bootstrap templates. It's currently working well, but in the
'input' method overload, I'm doing a temporary change to the 'input'
template as shown in my first post.
My question is: Is that a 'good' way of doing what I want? I mean, using
temporary template changes.
I don't want people to have to change the template manually when calling
the 'input' method, it should be transparent for users.
Thanks for your answer,
