Easily extend form controls by adding text, buttons, or button groups on either side of textual `<input>`s.
## Contents
* Will be replaced with the ToC, excluding the "Contents" header
{:toc}
## Basic example
Place one add-on or button on either side of an input. You may also place one on both sides of an input. **We do not support multiple add-ons on a single side, nor multiple form-controls in a single input group.**
{% example html %}
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon" id="basic-addon1">@</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" aria-describedby="basic-addon1">
</div>
<br>
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Recipient's username" aria-describedby="basic-addon2">
<span class="input-group-addon" id="basic-addon2">.00</span>
</div>
<br>
<label for="basic-url">Your vanity URL</label>
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon" id="basic-addon3">https://example.com/users/</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="basic-url" aria-describedby="basic-addon3">
</div>
<br>
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon">$</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Amount (to the nearest dollar)">
<span class="input-group-addon">.00</span>
</div>
{% endexample %}
## Sizing
Add the relative form sizing classes to the `.input-group` itself and contents within will automatically resize—no need for repeating the form control size classes on each element.
{% example html %}
<div class="input-group input-group-lg">
<span class="input-group-addon" id="sizing-addon1">@</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" aria-describedby="sizing-addon1">
</div>
<br>
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon" id="sizing-addon2">@</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" aria-describedby="sizing-addon2">
</div>
<br>
<div class="input-group input-group-sm">
<span class="input-group-addon" id="sizing-addon3">@</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" aria-describedby="sizing-addon3">
</div>
{% endexample %}
## Checkboxes and radio addons
Place any checkbox or radio option within an input group's addon instead of text.
{% example html %}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6">
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon">
<input type="checkbox" aria-label="Checkbox for following text input">
</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Text input with checkbox">
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6">
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon">
<input type="radio" aria-label="Radio button for following text input">
</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Text input with radio button">
</div>
</div>
</div>
{% endexample %}
## Button addons
Buttons in input groups are a bit different and require one extra level of nesting. Instead of `.input-group-addon`, you'll need to use `.input-group-btn` to wrap the buttons. This is required due to default browser styles that cannot be overridden.
{% example html %}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6">
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-btn">
<button class="btn btn-secondary" type="button">Go!</button>
</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search for...">
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6">
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search for...">
<span class="input-group-btn">
<button class="btn btn-secondary" type="button">Go!</button>
</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
{% endexample %}
## Buttons with dropdowns

<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6">
<div class="input-group">
<div class="input-group-btn">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">

## Accessibility
Screen readers will have trouble with your forms if you don't include a label for every input. For these input groups, ensure that any additional label or functionality is conveyed to assistive technologies.
The exact technique to be used (`<label>` elements hidden using the `.sr-only` class, or use of the `aria-label`, `aria-labelledby`, `aria-describedby`, `title` or `placeholder` attribute) and what additional information will need to be conveyed will vary depending on the exact type of interface widget you're implementing. The examples in this section provide a few suggested, case-specific approaches.
