Working with form objects

Forms are special objects that provide a mechanism to communicate outside the title. You can configure forms to send and receive a collection of data using a CGI-submit/receive command for both offline- and Web-published titles.

Create a form on a page and then add each form object into the form.

Forms are logical objects because they have no physical representation on a page but can contain form objects. The information contained in the form objects of a form can be submitted using a CGI program through a Submit Form action. You can specify if form results should be submitted to a Google Drive public document or a custom script.
