NAME¶
HTMLDocument::addRemoteForm - Add a form to call another application
SYNOPSIS¶
ElementTree addRemoteForm( ElementTree parent, String action, FormType
method )
ARGUMENTS¶
parent The parent element
action The URL of the other application
method The method to use to send the form data
DESCRIPTION¶
This adds a form that points to a specified URL. Unless the other URL is a (byte
for byte) identical copy of the current application, you will not be able to
use Kaya's special state handling, and must construct another way of passing
the information. If the security of the information is not critical, and the
other application is also a Kaya application, then the
Pickle(3kaya)
module may be of use.

-
form = addRemoteForm(doc.body,
"http://www.example.com/email.cgi",
FormPost);
Note that in HTML form input controls may not be placed directly inside a form -
you must add block-level elements to the form and add controls to those
elements. The
fieldset element is especially suited to this and the
HTMLDocument.addFieldset (3kaya) function handles this.
