So the if statement with 'inDecript' is basically saying if the fields
are known show the output and if they are not show the form to get the
input?
I'm not familiar with velocity at all . . I kinda just got thrown into
this task and seem to be lost with xwiki and can't find good working
examples of velocity code (other then little clips, but not a whole
page) or xwiki templates.
Thanks for the pointer though!

If the form is posted back to the view page, you can get the values from
the form inputs using velocity code like so:
#if($request.getParameter('inDecript'))
  ## This parameter is set, assume we have received a post, let's not
show the view page.
  #set($inDecript = $request.getParameter('inDecript'))
  ## do some stuff with the parameters.
#else
  ## no post, lets show the form
  {{html}}
    <form ....
  {{/html}}
#end
Then you have to use velocity (or groovy/python/ruby/php) to process the
information.
