syntax:!form `cmdvar'

mean:Creates a html form pointing to the wims server. <br/>\

  Whenever possible, this command should be used instead of a direct use of\

  html tag `&lt;form&gt;'. <br/>\

  This command will create a <form> tag pointing to the wims server, adding\

  <input> fields to pass session number (and other reserved things in the\

  future). In lines which follow, other input (or select) fields may be\

  added to the form. A final `!formend' must also be added by the\

  programmer. <br/> `cmdvar' is an optional parameter. Its value should be a valid\

  value for the variable `cmd'. In this case the value `cmdvar' will \

  be automatically submitted to the variable `cmd'. If this parameter is missing \

  or is invalid, then the programmer should add a \

  `<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="..." />' tag before the\

  final `&lt;/form&gt;'. <p>\

  The target of the form can be controlled by the variable `wims_ref_target'. \

  It can also be defined via an optional word `target=...'. Note that in this case \

  the target must start with `wims_'.\

  </p><p>\

  The variable `wims_form_method' which must be either `get' or `post' controls the method \

  of the form. This method defaults to `post' for tool modules, and to `get' for all\

  other modules.\
