I say, good <form>!

Wot'O, this is a jolly jQuery plugin for adding cheeky HTML5 forms to your site and wotnot. So simple to use you'll be done before morning tea.

Should you be bored after tea, then fear not for the want of being excited! There's a cracking WYSIWYG editor and a psyhic predictive text input to entertain you well in time for afternoon tea.

The quick and dirty implementation

Simply, include the folllowing JavaScript file... <script src="./dist/jquery.form.js"></script> and CSS StyleSheet... <link rel="stylesheet" href="./dist/jquery.form.css"/> Then at the bottom of the page invoke the shim on the form elements in the page... 

	$("form").form();

Minified versions are available at jquery.form.min.js and add the css jquery.form.min.css
