In this step, we'll generate a ''skeleton'' or our JSP for displaying information from the Person object. I say ''skeleton'' because it'll just be the <form> itself.

It's basically just a single class (FormTagsHandler.java) and a couple of XDoclet templates (FormKeys.xdt and Form_jsp.xdt). All these files are located in extras/viewgen.
