Why restrict the information to a set of standard
information fields? Why not allow ANY information required by the server to be
stored? Here is how: The user goes to the web page where the information is to
be entered. The web page contains XML tags that define the names of the fields
that are to be provided to the server. E.g. as <INFO1/> or
<INFO2> </INFO2>. How to provide the
information is represented by HTML objects like an edit box, check box etc. The
dotGNU system is integrated with the browser and reads what the user types in
each field and stores it. It is then the responsibility of the dotGNU system to
provide this information whenever the user returns to the web page.
