"What if you could leverage the inherent capabilities that Domino has to support workflows and forms?"
...do you think these are forms like database forms? (with fields like name, address, etc.)

Web forms
These are Web (HTML) forms.
Web forms are simple things--a few special tags to create fields, drop down boxes, and radio buttons, plus two special buttons: one to reset all values, and another to submit the form. Creating a Web form is trivial, especially if you have good Web design software. Any Notes form can be converted very quickly to a Web form simply by previewing it in a Web browser and saving the resulting Web page.
The difficult part is generally in processing the form once it's submitted to a server. Originally, this meant writing a custom CGI (Common Gateway Interface) program--often in Perl--to take the form submission, update any back-end systems, and generate a new HTML page to return to the browser user. On a Domino server, this complexity is all handled by Domino itself. It receives the form submission and creates a new Notes document in the appropriate database automatically.
