Gender input forms act as gates to accessing information, websites, and services online. Non-binary people regularly have to interact with them, though many do not offer non-binary gender options. This results in non-binary individuals having to either ...

We describe ArtForm, a tool for exploring the codebase of dynamic data-driven websites where users enter data via forms. ArtForm extends an instrumented browser, so it can directly implement user interactions, adding in symbolic and concolic execution ...

Amongst the many tasks in our lives, we encounter web forms on a regular basis, whether they are mundane like registering for a website, or complex and important like tax returns. There are many aspects of Usability, but one concern for user interfaces ...

While syntactic transformations require the application of a formula on the input values, such as unit conversion or date format conversions, semantic transformations, such as "zip code to city", require a look-up in some reference data. We recently ...

This study reports a controlled eye tracking experiment (N = 65) that shows the combined effectiveness of 20 guidelines to improve interactive online forms when applied to forms found on real company websites. Results indicate that improved web forms ...

Form-intensive Web applications are common among institutions that collect bulks of data in a piecemeal fashion. European funding programs or income tax return illustrate these scenarios. Very often, most of this data is already digitalized in terms of ...

Most websites use interactive online forms as a main contact point to users. Recently, many publications aim at optimizing web forms. In contrast to former research that focused at the evaluation of single guidelines, the present study shows in a ...

In order to realize the Semantic Web, various structures on the Web including Web forms need to be annotated with and mapped to domain ontologies. We present a machine learning-based automatic approach for discovering complex mappings from Web forms to ...

Web forms are massively used as a very effective way for user interaction with information systems. Notwithstanding, filling in forms with personal data can be tedious and repetitive. Due to legal and technical constraints, full interoperability of ...

In parallel to rapid growth of internet technologies, security becomes more critical in various real life applications such as e-finance, e-health, and e-government. These applications strictly require data authentication mechanisms. To address this ...

There has been a substantial increase in the number of Web data sources whose contents are hidden and can only be accessed through form interfaces. To leverage this data, several applications have emerged that aim to automate and simplify the access to ...

An important aspect of making the Web accessible to blind users is ensuring that all important web page elements such as links, clickable buttons, and form fields have explicitly assigned labels. Properly labeled content is then correctly read out by ...

Web forms are the main input mechanism for users to supply data to web applications. Users fill out forms in order to, for example, sign up to social network applications or do advanced searches in search-based web applications. This process is highly ...

We present DeepPeep (http://www.deeppeep.org), a new system for discovering, organizing and analyzing Web forms. DeepPeep allows users to explore the entry points to hidden-Web sites whose contents are out of reach for traditional search engines. ...

The term Deep Web (sometimes also called Hidden Web) refers to the data content that is created dynamically as the result of a specific search on the Web. In this respect, such content resides outside web pages, and is only accessible through ...

The deep web contains an order of magnitude more information than the surface web, but that information is hidden behind the web forms of a large number of web sites. Metasearch engines can help users explore this information by aggregating results from ...

There is a growing number of service providers that a consumer can interact with over the web to learn their service terms. The service terms, such as price and time to completion of the service, depend on the consumer's particular specifications. For ...

A wealth of structured, publicly-available information exists in the deep web but is only accessible by querying web forms. As a result, users are restricted by the interfaces provided and lack a convenient mechanism to express novel and independent ...

We present a practical and up-to-date proposal to teach formal languages. It takes advantage of frequent use of regular-expressions to specify entry data forms in different contexts and, particularly, in three-layer web applications. Compared to more ...

The crawler engines of today cannot reach most of the information contained in the Web. A great amount of valuable information is "hidden" behind the query forms of online databases, and/or is dynamically generated by technologies such as Javascript. ...
