Forms are an integral part of many web sites, whether
they are registration forms, feedback forms, or order forms. However,
forms are time consuming for the site user to fill out, and need to be
implemented to be as usable as possible, otherwise they can be
frustrating and annoying, spoiling the user experience.

way you wish, dealing with client-side forms in HTML and Flash,

form element reference.
