{{ BsForm::textAddon('right', 'Demo', 'textaddon2', 'Text-Addon') }}
{{ BsForm::password('password', 'Password') }}
{{ BsForm::file('file', 'File') }}
{{ BsForm::select('select', 'Select', array(''=>'-- Choose --','s1'=>'Select 1','s2'=>'Select 2','s3'=>'Select 3')) }}
{{ BsForm::textarea('textarea', 'Textarea') }}
{{ BsForm::radioGroup('radiogroup', 'radioGroup', array('r1'=>'1','r2'=>'2','r3'=>'3')) }}
