React forms and events
In this chapter we will discuss how to use forms in React.
A simple example
In the example we set the input box input valuevalue = {this.state.data}. We can update the state when the input box value changes. We can use the onChange event to monitor input changes and modify the state.
Instance
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>php中文网 React 实例</title>
<script src="http://static.php.cn/assets/react/react-0.14.7/build/react.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://static.php.cn/assets/react/react-0.14.7/build/react-dom.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://static.php.cn/assets/react/browser.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="example"></div>
<script type="text/babel">
var HelloMessage = React.createClass({
getInitialState: function() {
return {value: 'Hello php!'};
},
handleChange: function(event) {
this.setState({value: event.target.value});
},
render: function() {
var value = this.state.value;
return <div>
<input type="text" value={value} onChange={this.handleChange} />
<h4>{value}</h4>
</div>;
}
});
ReactDOM.render(
<HelloMessage />,
document.getElementById('example')
);
</script>
</body>
</html>Run instance»

The above code will render an input element with the value Hello php! and update the value entered by the user through the onChange event response.
Example 2
In the following example we will demonstrate how to use a form on a child component. The onChange method will trigger the update of state and pass the updated value to the value of the input box of the child component to re-render the interface.
You need to create an event handler (handleChange) in the parent component and pass it to your child component as a prop (updateStateProp).

React Event
The following example demonstrates modifying data through the onClick event:

When you need to update the state of the parent component from the child component, you need to The parent component creates an event handler (handleChange) and passes it to your child component as a prop (updateStateProp). The examples are as follows:
