formVista is an open-source dual-licensed PHP component framework for the rapid creation of advanced business web applications that run in commodity hosting environments. formVista purpose is to help web development companies do more, faster, with less staff.

The framework implements the formVista Markup Language (a.k.a. FVML), an XML dialect that brings reusability and role separation to web development projects by combining HTML, SQL, client side Javascript (including AJAX), validation rules, authentication and business logic into completely self-contained components.

Components may be as simple as a columnar report or as complex as a multi-user discussion forum. Once built in FVML, components can be placed by relatively junior web designers onto any properly configured PHP web page as if it were any other kind of content.

What's New in This Release:
A Web based application setup system was added.
MS Windows platforms are now supported.
PHP 4.3.0 through PHP 5.1.2 are supported.
