1st <input type = "text" id = "first_name" size = "25" maxlength = "25" alt = "First name" title = "Your first name">
2nd <input type = "hidden" id = "f_first_name" value = "required,word">
3rd <div id = "fn_first_name" class = "invalid"> </div>
ddform interprets the above three form elements provided in HTML and uses that information to process the
first name input (1st element) based on the optional 2nd and 3rd associated elements. The data inputs (1st) can be identified
by any name, but the associated filter and notice (2nd and 3rd) elements must conform to the naming convention. These elements
use the 1st input identifier name with the addition of a leading "f_" and "fn_" respectively. The filter in this case specifies
that the first name must be provided, and must contain the valid characters of a word (alphabet, period, apostrophe, hyphen, etc.)
in order to proceed with the popup form submittal. The notice div element will display an invalid message using
the text in the 1st input element's alt attribute. In the case of an erroenous name - the notice would display "Invalid First name."
The word "Invalid" is joined to the beginning of the alt text specified in the 1st input element.
