trusty (3) HTMLDocument.addRemoteForm.3kaya.gz

Provided by: kaya_0.4.4-6ubuntu3_amd64 bug

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.
