Interactive XForms School

Interactive, cross-platform tutorial on W3C XForms. Learn how you can benefit from open standards. No special software is needed, beyond a modern browser with the Macromedia Flash plugin, thanks to the Mozquito Desktop Engine.

This information is in part taken from the O'Reilly book XForms Essentials. Used with permission.

Effectively Gather and Manage XML

This unique introduction to W3C XForms provides the Web's most accurate tutorial on XForms, written by an editor of the XForms 1.0 Recommendation. It takes advantage of already-deployed client-side technology, so no special software is required.

It will be helpful if you have at least a little bit of experience with HTML.
