Every <FORM> element in the document corresponds to an object in the forms[] array.

Warnings:

• Be aware that if you are not using some NAME or ID binding to the <FORM> tags, you may get unexpected results if new forms are added and you are accessing elements of this array using numeric index values.

• In MSIE version 4, this returns a generic untyped object instead of an AppletArray object. MSIE 5 is more consistent with Netscape .

• Following some experiments, it seems that in Netscape (version 4.75) the length of the forms[] array indicates only the number of numerically indexed items in the array. There are additional items added to the array to refer to the same Form objects by name.

Example code:

   // Referring to the first form of a document

   myFirstForm = document.forms[0];

   // Referring to the last form of a document

   myLastForm = document.forms[document.forms.length-1];
