About this project

In WebGUI 8 the forms system will be cleaned up. The TWG has to come up with a proposal for the HTML generated by the improved formssystem.

To do:

Research forms best practices. Then start with a specification for an inline searchbox in the main template for assets with a search function, and with a spec for the dataform.

Then we can build upon that and add requirements for edit profile, thingy forms etc. We'll need an inventory of the forms in WebGUI for that.

The goal is to come up with a spec which is as flexible as possible (templatable form elements inside and ouside loops, var for label, name and value available) but has simple default vars as well.

This is Andy's project.
