XForms

XForms is a mark-up language from the W3C for describing all kinds of interactive user interfaces, from simple name and address forms, to shopping-carts, to long and detailed forms such as mortgage and life insurance applications, through to desktop applications.

The team at webBackplane has expertise and experience in XForms that is unparalled.

Not only do we have a wealth of experience using the language, earning us a reputation for creating innovative and easy-to-use forms (see XForms plays key role in financial services application from 1st Software), but we also know the language from the inside, having developed a number of the leading XForms processors.

Members of our team devised and created formsPlayer, the first XForms processor in the world to conform to the XForms standard, and the Ubiquity XForms processor, an open source Ajax library that uses XForms to define its features, rather than script.

As well as consulting, creating XForms applications, and building processors, we also help in the framing and honing of the standard by providing an Invited Expert to the W3C's XForms Working Group.

So whilst XForms is just one of many skill-sets that you will find in the webBackplane team, it is one at which we can rightly claim to be world leaders--which is why we created a focused division called Applied XForms, to provide XForms-related consultancy, training, application-building, and evangelism.
