Creating Interactive Web Forms from XML Documents

This paper explains the XML Form Designer with which we can visually create a Web form from an XML document. With the XML Form Designer, we can (1) create XSL stylesheets in a WYSIWYG environment, (2) define input assistance rules that provide interactive help functions for the Web forms, and (3) add an XML digital signature function to the Web forms. The XML Form Designer allows us to create interactive Web forms without seeing or writing any complicated XSL statements and without script language programming.
