New version 2.0 has been released! The project is now hosted at github.

Version 1.02 will no longer be maintained.

1. Ideal Forms is a small framework to build powerful and beautiful forms for the web.
2. It's very easy to use and requires minimal html.
3. Absolutely everything is stylable with css, no images needed.
4. Support for IE8+, Firefox 3.6+, Chrome 9+, Safari 4+ and Opera 11+.
5. Degrades gracefully with javascript disabled (you'll need to style it tho)
