First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- enabling graphical selection of a recursive section component for an electronic form;
receiving selection of the recursive section component; and
altering a schema governing the electronic form to permit a recursive section associated with the selected recursive section component.

Abstract
Systems and/or methods enabling creation and/or use of a recursive section for an electronic form are described. In one embodiment, a system and/or method enables alteration, responsive to graphical selection of a recursive section component, of an electronic form'"'"'s schema to permit a recursive section. In another embodiment, a system and/or method enables a user to modify a recursive section in an electronic form through a rendering of the electronic form.

14. One or more computer-readable media having computer-readable instructions therein that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform acts comprising:
-
enabling graphical selection of a recursive section; and
responsive to selection of the recursive section, building an electronic form capable of enabling a user to add an arbitrary number and level of instances of the selected recursive section to the electronic form. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. One or more computer-readable media having computer-readable instructions therein that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform acts comprising:
-
rendering an electronic form having a recursive section; and
enabling a user to modify the recursive section through the rendering. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)

27. One or more computer-readable media having computer-readable instructions therein that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform acts comprising:
-
displaying an electronic form governed by a schema permitting a recursive section;
enabling graphical selection to add an instance of the recursive section to the electronic form; and
adding, responsive to receiving the selection, the instance of the recursive section to the electronic form while ensuring that the electronic form remains valid to the schema. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30)

31. A method comprising:
-
determining that a recursive schema part of an electronic form is substantially similar to a schema construct capable of being associated with a recursive section component;
enabling selection of the recursive section component;
receiving selection of the recursive section component; and
associating logic with the electronic form, the logic associated with the recursive section component and capable of guiding how a user interacts with a portion of the electronic form governed by the recursive schema part. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35)
