Using HTML Forms

You can use AvantGo Client to fill out and submit HTML forms, just like you do in Web
browsers on a desktop.
AvantGo Client handles forms differently in online and offline modes. When you are in
online mode, tap the Submit button and AvantGo sends the request to the Web site which
sends back a response, and displays the results on your SPT 173x terminal.
When in offline mode, AvantGo Client can't send the request to the Web site until you sync
your device with your desktop computer. Therefore, you are not able to view the current
stock prices until after the form is submitted and the results returned through the
synchronization process. In this case, the form submittal is saved on the SPT 173x in the
Forms Manager until you sync. At that time, it is submitted to the Web site, which sends
back a response. Depending on the page, this response can be viewed in the channel
where it was submitted or in the Forms Manager.
