This class can be used to generate HTML and Javascript for displaying forms.
This project promotes rapid development of forms through an object-oriented PHP structure, eliminates the grunt/repetitive work of writing the html and javascript validation when building forms, reduces human error by using a consistent/tested utility, and incorporate complex elements such as ajax, jquery, google maps, tooltips, captcha, and html web editors quickly and with little effort.
There are 15 example files that provide multiple implementations of the class and will give you a head start in your development. Also, there are currently 3 YouTube videos that provide a more in-depth look various pieces of the project.
