You should check out the Woody samples ("Various" and "Flowscript"
pages) in the latest CVS : it includes tabbed forms, switching panels
with a popup to select the panel, etc. It's based on some high-level
grouping tags that automatically produce the needed HTML, CSS and
JavaScript stuff.
I also added yesterday server-side event handling features, and the
ability for a widget to trigger form submit. Checkout the carselector
sample (updated a few minutes ago) that demonstrates this, and also the
number panel in the "Various" page.
It certainly doesn't provide the same user experience as Joerg's
impressive XUL application but, well... works on any browser ;-)
Of course, we could also have stylesheets producing XUL for Woody forms.
Any taker ?
Enjoy,
Sylvain
