Traditional HTML forms
violate many of the tenets
of good markup language
design, frequently mixing
presentation and data. This
article introduces you to
XForms, an extension of
XHTML that represents the
next generation of Web
forms. Though XForms is
still in an embryonic state,
it holds great promise: For
instance, a form written
with XForms can be written
once and displayed in
optimal ways on several
different platforms. This
article will give you a head
start on this important
emerging XML technology.
