The <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>FormBroker</strong></span></span> package creates instances of
objects representing a form data description. These objects offer a
simple interface of methods meant to validate and control data
as typically posted through an HTML form,
thus data represented through the association of form variables
with their values as returned, for example,
by the <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>::rivet::load_response</strong></span></span> command
</p><div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><table border="0" summary="Note"><tr><td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="top" width="25"><img alt="[Note]" src="images/note.png"></td><th align="left">Note</th></tr><tr><td align="left" valign="top">
The <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>FormBroker</strong></span></span> package is still experimental.
Basic functionalities and interface are not likely to change but
internal details and implementation could be redesigned
in future releases. More specifically the external validator mechanism
could be improved with the purpose of shielding the <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>FormBroker</strong></span></span>
internals from a data validation procedure.
