Converting Simple HTML form to AUI form In this section we will see how to convert simple HTML form we have just created to an AUI form and use the AUI elements. Insert the AUI taglib definition in init.jsp, <%@tagliburi="http://liferay.com/tld/aui"prefix="aui"%>

<aui:formname="fm"method="POST"action="<%= updateBookURL.toString() %>"> <aui:inputname="bookTitle"label="Book Title"/> <aui:inputname="author"/> <aui:buttontype="submit"value="Save"/> </aui:form>1. when you use AUI, you need not have to explicitly give <portlet:namespace/>
