Quick Start (Base64): Rendering an HTML Form with a custom toolbar using the web service API

The following Java code example renders an HTML form with a toolbar that is displayed in French. The location of the fscmenu.xml is C:\Adobe (this folder must be on the server hosting LiveCycle). Notice that the locale value is fr_FR. The section that discusses how to render an HTML form with a custom toolbar shows the syntax of the fscmenu.xml file used in this quick start. (See Rendering HTML Forms with Custom Toolbars.)
