                forms-based-tester.patch


Here are a couple of newer screens showing JAX-RS and JAX-WS service invocations. I'm also attaching a patch that shows the current work.

I still have some seriously weird layout issues I'm trying to track down. But I'm getting there.

> Tried out the ws tester today and been thinking about better layout since it is rather bulky today
> I'll attach a mockup of it but in "short" its:
> 1) Reduce redundant text (i.e. XXX instead of Request XXX)
> 2) Make input field directly visible (less tabs)
> 3) Avoid text buttons where icons can be used
> 4) Remove duplicate functionallity (tcp monitor does not seem to provide functionallity outside of what tcp monitor does)
> 5) Let the output be Save, open in editor based on content type, show "raw" and show in "embedded browser"
> 6) Tab and save input between sessions to avoid retyping.
> 7) Consider add history back/forward buttons ?
