The VoltoWFO Web Form Objects Component is an ActiveX DLL that enables applications to submit form data to web servers. The component not only provides a simple object model to create and navigate Form objects, but it also allows these objects to be updated directly by responses from a web server. This provides a simple framework for lightweight two-way data exchange between a VoltoWFO-enabled client and any web server.

The component works with all development tools and applications that support COM components (such as Microsoft Visual Basic, or Active Server Pages). Use it to build PC client or web server-based applications.

Features:

Submits forms via HTTP.
Supports GET or POST methods.
Simple object model allows creation and navigation of form objects.
Unique form update method allows any web server on any platform to be programmed to add and update local form objects through HTTP header data (no component required on the server).
Supports HTTP Proxy Servers.
Simple to program. Only a few lines of code are needed.
Works with all tools and applications that support COM components (e.g: Visual Basic, Active Server Pages, Excel.)

Inter-application communication or middleware.
Retrieval of application settings from web-based database.
User and application authentication mechanisms.
Programmatic access to web applications.
