Good forms

Dave Rupert compiled a list of properties that should play a role for good forms. Among the many, here are the last five points from Dave´s list:

Good forms make the baby Jesus smile

Good authenticated forms should have a server-generated nonce value

Good forms should do a pre-flight check for navigator.onLine before attempting a submit

Good forms start with accent-color for styling and only get more complex if necessary

Good forms see custom controls as a radioactive asset that must be removed at the earliest opportunity
