Title: Programmatically create R functions corresponding to Web/HTML
        forms.
Author: Duncan Temple Lang Sunduz Keles Sandrine Dudoit

Description: This package provides tools to process HTML forms and
        create R functions that can mimic a browser's interaction with
        the form. This allows S users to progammatically access data
        that is available via an HTML form, avoiding the manual
        interaction and the need to manage the data from the browser to
        R via files.  Instead, the data from the form processing is
        immediately available in R. This does not currently deal with
        dynamic forms, and basically does not handle JavaScript in a
        form.
Note: The original code is quite old, but was never released. It uses
        XML handler functions where XPath queries to fetch the form
        elements might be easier. Some of the examples are out of date
        and the Web forms no longer exist or are quite different. The
        concepts remain as relevant now. The most recent example is in
        the help page for createFunction.
