I'm attempting to learn how ezpub handles forms. Can someone point me in the direction of some good forms documentation? Many posts list the tutorial on the old sdk site which is no longer available. Is that available elsewhere?

Also, a couple questions:

In examples I've seen, input tags will have names like 'ActionRemove' or 'NewButton'. Is there some documentation on what these names need to be? or how to use these tags to interact with Exponential

To store collected form information in a db, do I need to write my own extension?

Thanks,

Jason

Some of available attributes can be use as information collectors, this means, data are stored in DB and you can browse collected information in admin interface Setup->Collected information. You can create new content class with attributes marked as Information collector. This tutorial describes how to present this attributes in template:
