SimpleForm 
SimpleForm is a language for constructing HTML forms out of very little text.
Here's a simple login form:
Login
Welcome dear user!
Username: {{ username }}
Password: {{ password }}
[Login](/login)
- The first line is recognized as the title, and is used both for the title (like this:
<title>Login</title>and as a title in the body, like this:<h2>Login</h2>. - The lines with
{{and}}are recognized as single line input fields, where the label is the word before:. - The
[Login](/login)is recognized as a button that can submit the contents of the form as a POST request to/login.
Here's the generated output from the above form file:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Login</title>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Login</h2>
<p>Welcome dear user!</p>
<form method="POST">
<label for="username">Username:</label><input type="text" id="username" name="username"><br><br>
<label for="password">Password:</label><input type="password" id="password" name="password"><br><br>
<input type="submit" formaction="/login" value="Login"><br><br>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Features and limitations
- If the input ID starts with
passwordorpwd, then the input type"password"is used. - Multiple buttons can be provided on a single line.
- All text that is not recognized as either the title or as form elements is combined and returned in a
<p>tag. - If
[[and]]are used instead of{{and}}, then a multi-line text input box is created instead. - Check boxes and radio buttons are not supported yet.

Functions ¶
func HTML ¶
HTML transforms the contents of a .frm file to a HTML form
Example use:
Return a full HTML document: HTML(frmContents, true, "en", "/style.css, "/favicon.ico") Return just the body of the HTML document, using the default values of the rest: HTML(frmContents, false)
If entireDocument is true, doctype + html + head + body is returned, and not just the body contents.
The optional parameter can be from 0 to 3 strings with: - The language of the document, default is "en" - The CSS URL of the document, no default, example: "/css/style.css" - The favicon URL of the document, no default, example: "/img/favicon.ico"
