FormFaces

http://www.formfaces.com/main.html

FormFaces is a pure JavaScript solution that utilizes AJAX techniques and can be seamlessly integrated with AJAX applications. This means that XForms HTML can be sent directly to the browser where JavaScript transcodes the XForms controls to HTML form controls and processes the binding directly within the browser - requiring ZERO server-side processing and ZERO plug-ins.

Understanding XForms: Customization

http://www.oreillynet.com/xml/blog/2006/07/understanding_xforms_customiza.html

"To date, one of the things that I can generally say about the XForms examples that I have been producing is that they are, well, kind of dull. Not necessarily topically - I’ve found in general that when I give XForms demonstrations to people, they tend to be fairly ho-hum about it until I actually begin to show the power of such schema driven development … then their jaws drop. However, as with video games, while it may be the game play fundamentals (good story, good interface, good tech) that keeps people playing, its the artwork (usually of extraordinarily endowed CGI women, for some bizarre reason) that makes them buy the game in the first place. Neglecting presentation in XForms won’t kill your app, but you can do so much more with it if you dress it up a bit."

Introduction to XForms

http://www.formsplayer.com/introduction-to-xforms

This handbook covers everything you need to know to get started with XForms. You'll start with a simple walkthrough to get your development environment up and running, then create two fully functioning applications--one that saves links to del.icio.us, and another that searches Flickr. Both use CSS-driven Ajax animations.

XForms

http://www.nforms.net

Traditional HTML Web forms don't separate the purpose from the presentation of a form. XForms, in contrast, are comprised of separate sections that describe what the form does, and how the form looks.

Will XForms Matter?

http://www.transformmag.com/shared/cp/print_article.jhtml?articleID=17100027

Will Adobe, Cardiff and the other eForms companies rally behind XForms, partially in response to Microsoft? Will XForms develop momentum on its own? Or will Microsoft's push into the eForms space with InfoPath move the market in a whole new direction? The next year should tell us a lot about where the market will go. (Transform Magazine, January 2004)

XML.com: XForms and Microsoft InfoPath

http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2003/10/29/infopath.html

XML.com: InfoPath is an application and XForms is a data format, so they can't directly be compared. It is possible, on the other hand, to compare the data format and processing model underlying InfoPath with XForms, which is the approach this article takes.
