You have probably seen input areas in other \HyperName{}
pages. They provide {\it dynamic link} capabilities.
Instead of having a choice between certain actions,
they allow you to specify an action on--the--fly.
To use them, you need the following commands:
\beginImportant
\newline
{\tt \\inputstring\{{\it label}\}\{{\it length}\}\{{\it default value}\}}
\newline
{\tt \\stringvalue\{{\it label}\}}
\endImportant

The first command puts up an input area of the {\it length}
specified. The {\it default value} is placed in it.
The first argument, {\it label} gives a name to the
contents of the input area.
You can refer to those contents by using
the second command. Never place a {\tt \\stringvalue} command
in an "exposed" part of the page. It is only meant
to be used as an argument to an {\it action}.
Here are some examples.
