I have a simple form that is in a module
; $Id$
name = Form Example
description = Shows how to build a Drupal form.
package = Pro Drupal Development
core = 6.x
the above is the .info file
// $Id$
/**
* @file
* Play with the Form API.
*/
/**
* Implementation of hook_menu().
*/
function formexample_menu() {
$items['formexample'] = array(
'title' => 'View the form',
'page callback' => 'formexample_page',
'access arguments' => array('access content'),
);
return $items;
}
/**
* Menu callback.
* Called when user goes to http://example.com/?q=formexample
*/
function formexample_page() {
$output = t('This page contains our example form.');
// Return the HTML generated from the $form data structure.
$output .= drupal_get_form('formexample_nameform');
return $output;
}
/**
* Define a form.
*/
function formexample_nameform($form_id, $form_state = NULL) {
$form_state['formexample']['spam_score'] = 90;
$form['user_name'] = array(
'#title' => t('Your Name'),
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#description' => t('Please enter your name.'),
);
$form['submit'] = array(
'#type' => 'submit',
'#value' => t('Submit')
);
if (isset($form_state['formexample']['spam_score'])) {
$form['captcha'] = module_invoke_all('captcha', 'generate', 'Math');
}
return $form;
}
/**
* Validate the form.
*/
function formexample_nameform_validate($form_id, &$form_state) {
if ($form_state['values']['user_name'] == 'King Kong') {
// We notify the form API that this field has failed validation.
form_set_error('user_name',
t('King Kong is not allowed to use this form.'));
}
}
/**
* Handle post-validation form submission.
*/
function formexample_nameform_submit($form_id, $form_state) {
$name = $form_state['values']['user_name'];
drupal_set_message(t('Thanks for filling out the form, %name',
array('%name' => $name)));
}
The code above is a .module file. I dont really understand what it's supposed to do or how it's supposed to work. Do I create a form on a regular page and tne submit it to this? Do I somehow call the form to display it. How does this attach to a regular page that displays a form or am I missing something?
Any help would be appreciated

Hi, Your problem might be
Hi,
Your problem might be here in the form constructor declaration. So, please replace
function formexample_nameform($form_id, $form_state = NULL) {} with function formexample_nameform($form_state = array()) {}
Vasi.
