Actually, for the most part, both HTML forms and XForms are pretty useless without some kind of server-side component. Why go to the trouble of putting together a decent form if you're only going to manipulate it with Javascript? I was under the impression that both form libraries were created because it became necessary for the user to input information on a web page for server-side programming to work with. Personally, the only 100% client-side uses of forms (period) I've ever seen have been insanely basic; generally, the complicated logic is kept on the server-side. -- http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ - Get Firefox! http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/ - Reclaim Your Inbox!
