OLPCities/Form

"Form" is a Class that is part of the DOM (Document Object Model). This "library" is referenced automaticaly by the browser of the OLPC station and you don't need to add anything in the program to use it.

We are now (sept 2006) doing tests to verify all the methods and properties of this Class that is working OK with the OLPC station. So, we have only a few elements presented here.

To create an object of the Class you will use the tag FORM defining a NAME. You need to close the tag. Something like:

<form name = form1>
...

</form>

Properties

(object of the Class TextBox )  Normaly we have a chain of objects/propeties, because a property of the 
                                 Class TextBox can be  "value".
                                 By example: we can capture what was typed at a textbox  with:
                                 document.form1.tb1.value
