Description
Return the user-desired HTTP method, if given. Otherwise, return the CGI.REQUEST_METHOD, as usual.
See https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/routing#form-method-spoofing
This will introduce no breaking issues while making it possible for normal forms to follow RESTful routing guidelines.

<form method="POST" action="#event.buildLink( 'posts.#post.getId()#' )#"> <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="DELETE" /> <button type="submit">Delete</button> </form> <!--- Instead of ---> <form method="POST" action="#event.buildLink( 'posts.#post.getId()#.delete' )#"> <button type="submit">Delete</button> </form>
The HTMLHelper has been updated as well:
// Some comments here #html.startForm( action = "posts.#prc.post.getId()#", method="DELETE" )# #html.submitButton( name = "Delete", class = "btn btn-danger" )# #html.endForm()# <!--- will output ---> <form action="http://localhost/posts/1" method="POST"> <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="DELETE" /> <input type="submit" name="Delete" value="Submit" class="btn btn-danger" id="Delete"/> </form>
