Before using a webobject it has to be included like this:

    <Include SRC="{{LISTBOX_PATH}}listbox.html" />

where 'listbox.html' contains the declaration of the
<WebClass> listbox. Then we use it like this:

    <WebObject Class="listbox" Name="list1" . . . />

It would be better if the framework knows itself about the
location of the standard webclasses and can include them
automatically when an instance of this webclass is used.
In such a case there would be no need for the first line
above.

In case that it is not a standard webclass (and the framework
does not know about its location), or the developer wants to
override a standard webclass, then it can tell to the framework
about the path of the webclass using one of the following ways:

1 - <IncludeWebClass ID="my_listbox" PATH="path/to/my_listbox/" />

    This is similar to the <Include> above, but has a more 
    specific syntax and there is no need to use it for the
    standard (registered) webclasses.


2 - <WebObject Class="my_listbox" Path="path/to/listbox/"
               Name="list1" . . . />

    In this case the location of the webclass is specified at
    the declaration of the webobject (/path/to/listbox/my_listbox.html
    is the file that will be used by the framework and it should
    contain the definition of the 'my_listbox' <WebClass>).


3 - WebApp::use_webclass("my_listbox", "path/to/listbox/");

    This should be called in init() or in onParse() and it is like
    registering this webclass so that the framework knows how to
    find it.
