I have another question about the docs in nuvow webform. I'm following
the tutorial for nevow and I want to create a dynamic form with model.
http://www.divmod.org/Home/Projects/Nevow/index.html
I see an example of the webform, but it doesn't quite work:
class WebForm(rend.Page):
# document = rend.stan( # this should be changed to:
docFactory = loaders.stan(
tags.html[
tags.body[
h1["Here is the form:"],
webform.renderForms('original')
]
])
resource = WebForm(Implementation())
I'm not sure I quite understand why 'original' goes there, but in any
case, I don't get any output from this. Is there something else that
needs to be fixed with this example?
