<?php

// See http://api.drupal.org/api/function/hook_menu/6

$items = array();
$items['my_module/form'] = array(
'title' => t('My form'),
'page callback' => 'my_module_form',
'access arguments' => array('access content'),

}

// This function gets called in the browser address bar for:
//"http://yourhost/my_module/form" or
//"http://yourhost/?q=my_module/form". It will generate// a page with //this form on it.

function my_module_form() {

// This form calls the form builder function via the
// drupal_get_form() function which takes the name of this form builder
// function as an argument. It returns the results to display the form.
return drupal_get_form('my_module_my_form');

}

// This function is called the "form builder". It builds the form.
// Notice, it takes one argument, the $form_state
function my_module_my_form($form_state) {

// This is the first form element. It's a textfield with a label, "Name"
$form['name'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#title' => t('Name'),
);
