SYNOPSIS

ElementTree addLocalForm( ElementTree parent, Bool fileupload=false )

ARGUMENTS

parent The parent element

fileupload Does this particular form allow file uploads. This argument can be omitted, for a default of disallowing them. Note that WebCommon.allowFileUploads(3kaya) must also be called for this to be successfully enabled.

DESCRIPTION

This adds a form that points to the current web application to call a named function. You then need to use HTMLDocument.addLocalControlInput(3kaya) to choose the function to call.

If you are using mod_rewrite in Apache, or other methods of rewriting URLs at the webserver level, then you may need to call setAttribute(form,"action",rewritten) , as Kaya cannot know about this URL rewriting layer.

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.
