Comment

Missing method handler - implements various simple input types. Is used to create inputs
of various types. e.g. `$this->Form->text();` will create `<input type="text" />` while
`$this->Form->range();` will create `<input type="range" />`

### Usage

`$this->Form->search('User.query', array('value' => 'test'));`

Will make an input like:

`<input type="search" id="UserQuery" name="data[User][query]" value="test" />`

The first argument to an input type should always be the fieldname, in `Model.field` format.
The second argument should always be an array of attributes for the input.

@param string $method Method name / input type to make.
@param array $params Parameters for the method call
@return string Formatted input method.
@throws CakeException When there are no params for the method call.
