form data entry

I am developing a JSP/Struts application and there are two features where the user need to enter information about the form in his HTML page (which is not accessible to my application). He need to specify the method, action with full URL, field names, filed types, values etc. Is there any readymade editor I can present him, to smoothen his input of this form-information?

In the dream table I am looking at, the user can edit the entries-- and additionally there will be a textbox at the top in which he can copy/paste his <FORM> section from his HTML, which then is parsed on the client-side itself and placed in that editable table.

AM I making sense and is there something I can use or inspire from?

And it will be much big a wonder if this information collected from the user is passed in some format that will make my server-side parsing easier...

This should be possible with JavaScript. What code do you have so far?

none except for a text area

looking for a data entry screen that collects information about a html form (or even take the html and extract the same information)

thanks

Can you give an example of the kind of form data entry you're looking to support?

enter form name

enter forms fields

NAME, TYPE, VALUE
NAME, TYPE, VALUE
NAME, TYPE, VALUE
this should get repeated as many times as the user wants

Is it some thing like user can enter the input name, types, values and other form data in a form (made by you) and automatically your application will present a customized form?...
Am I getting you right or not?

That looks about right from what I can gather, though I'll let the OP confirm.

rameshch45, thanks for replying after over two months! :)
