Re: Standards development (was HTML forms)

In my experience, the proper way to develop standards is to begin with a private implementation.

And to do so does not necessarily require building an entire browser. Since the input "widget" is just one part of a page, you only need to prototype that one widget. You can do it in any RAD environment. Make a background image that looks like part of a web page if you like, and put your widget onto it. Build in your behaviors, then upload it to the 'Net for people to try out. Bonus points if you can deploy to multiple platforms (REALbasic is good;).
