But not this bit. What on earth are you going on about? 

WF2 is an extension for *forms*. If you're using HTML4 forms, you almost 
certainly have a server to submit the data to. Ditto for WF2. 

I agree that it is possible to have HTML4 form controls without a server, 
but the same is true for WF2. I just can't work out what you're trying to 
say.
