Formy - finally out

Wednesday, June 25, 2008 { 6 Comments }

After one month of reviewing, code rewriting, testing... finally is out! Formy.

What is Formy?

Formy is mini CSS Framework for building web forms.

Why Formy?

I just was not happy with the existing solution for building web forms. There are so many solutions for web forms: forms with list(ul,li), forms inside tables,fancy forms with ajax ..

But I needed simple solution! I wanted to write elementary HTML code and leave all the dirty work CSS.
That is why I made Formy.
All the HTML formatting is made with the " br " tag, imho this is natural HTML Form writing.

If you are interested you can find more info at: Formy or download

You can find all the demo inside the Formy CSS Form Framework 0.8(beta).zip

   Stumbled across this post, looks interesting but neither your blog, or the project site, have an example form. Fix, please?

   I think its great that you took the time to developed this, but could you spare a minute and take a screen shot for the world to see? Please?

   Good work on the project.
   
   One comment on general form and semantics;
   
   I notice you're laying out your radio/checkboxes on the page by placing an empty label right before them to equally space them.
   
   While that works, I don't think it's the ideal solution.
   
   My general approach would be to put them inside a container and float them up along side the label.
   
   Depending on which way you swing, semantically speaking, you'd probably want a UL or a DIV container.
   
   <label>Something</label>
   <ul class="buttonGroup">
   <li><input type="checkbox" /></li>
   </ul>
