function drupal_prepare_form in Drupal 7

Same name and namespace in other branches
  1. 5 includes/form.inc \drupal_prepare_form()
  2. 6 includes/form.inc \drupal_prepare_form()

Prepares a structured form array.

Adds required elements, executes any hook_form_alter functions, and optionally inserts a validation token to prevent tampering.

Parameters

$form_id: A unique string identifying the form for validation, submission, theming, and hook_form_alter functions.

$form: An associative array containing the structure of the form.

$form_state: A keyed array containing the current state of the form. Passed in here so that hook_form_alter() calls can use it, as well.
