Description

When you write a form, if you want the dynamic interaction and style, you need to implement all on the form.
The developer must know the style used, different area and rules support by the technology besides the really information/action that the form will do.

<form name="FindFacility" type="list" list-name="listIt" paginate-target="FindFacility"
 odd-row-style="alternate-row" header-row-style="header-row-2" default-table-style="basic-table hover-bar">
 <actions>...
 <field name="facilityId">....
 <on-event-update-area event-type="sort-column" area-id="search-results" area-target="FacilitySearchResults"/>
 <on-event-update-area event-type="paginate" area-id="search-results" area-target="FacilitySearchResults"/>
 </form>

We can put all information on the theme and all dynamic refresh (for area) are related to the parent form and parent screen. Finally we obtains

<form name="FindFacility" extends="CommonDynamicList" extends-resource="component://common/widget/CommonForms.xml"
 paginate-target="FindFacility">
 <actions>...
 <field name="facilityId">....
 </form>
