XFORMS Approved by W3C

Posted by Hemos on Monday November 18, 2002 @02:10AM from the build-it-for-all dept.

cshoes writes "As of November 12th, the W3C has approved xforms. Xforms are a major step up from standard html forms, as they can be created in the developers medium of choice (xhtml, xml, svg...). This flexibility allows the forms not only to be displayed on web sites, but also handhelds, phones, and screenreaders. The W3C's page on xforms is here. Overall, very good news for developers everywhere."

What? Only one bug report for the implementation of XForms? Good God no duplicates!

If you'd looked a bit harder you'd have seen that that bug is over a year old. Indeed the last comment on it is from the coder who is going to impliment it, in a month or so.
