I have in my composer.json
"illuminate/html": "^5.0"
I did a composer dump-autoload so all is well there.
In my app.config, I have in my providers section:
Illuminate\Html\HtmlServiceProvider::class,
In my aliases section I have:
'Form' => Illuminate\Html\FormFacade::class,
'Html' => Illuminate\Html\HtmlFacade::class,
If I go to tinker and type Form::open(), predictably I get:
<form method="POST" action="http://localhost" accept-charset="UTF-8"><input name="_token" type="hidden">
However, in my blade page, if I do a:
{!! Form::open() !!}
{!! Form::close() !!}
I see those words on the page! I hate to ask such a stupid question but how can I get this to work within my blade page?
When I put the Form tags on a blade page
{!! Form::open() !!}
{!! Form::close() !!}
The source html source is
<form method="POST" action="http://localhost/test" accept-charset="UTF-8">
<input name="_token" type="hidden" value="zgd8BaZDnnDeF6qFdODQM9tjwmBOWgQp1bAHqMWY">
</form>
composer.json
"require": {
"illuminate/html": "~5.0"
}
config/app.php
'providers' => [
Illuminate\Html\HtmlServiceProvider::class,
],
'aliases' => [
'Form' => Illuminate\Html\FormFacade::class,
'Html' => Illuminate\Html\HtmlFacade::class,
]
I have an alias for caching issues that I like to use
alias cleanslate='artisan cache:clear;artisan clear-compiled;composer dump-autoload;rm -fv ./storage/framework/views/*'
a combination of
artisan cache:clear;
artisan clear-compiled;
composer dump-autoload;
rm -fv ./storage/framework/views/*;
Which can help get rid of weird problems.
The only other thing I can think of is to run composer update and/or composer install
Edit
There are a few things you could try.
Make the storage directory writable.
chmod 777 -R ./storage
Run a diff on the app directory of both project, the one that works and the one that doesn't and make any adjustments as needed.
Copy all of your source into the project that works.
It should be:
{!! Form::open() !!}
{!! Form::close() !!}
