HTML Elements Contained in the Body Element
The proprietary HTML elements contained in the body are all custom "input" elements.
Input elements are not rendered even if they are of type text due to the dimensions of the display. The UCA client
application behaves as though the custom input tags are visible and "clickable" by a user. Each custom input tag
must be within a form element. All input fields that are not of type "submit" or "button" and the input field that was
activated are sent to the server using the value of the "action" attribute and the value of the "method" attribute. The
form data is sent as GET or POST based on the value of the "method" attribute. POST is used if the "method"
attribute is not contained in the form element.
