Nestable alias of `form` directive. HTML does not allow nesting of form elements. It is useful to nest forms, for example if the validity of a sub-group of controls needs to be determined.

Note: the purpose of `ngForm` is to group controls, but not to be a replacement for the `<form>` tag with all of its capabilities (e.g. posting to the server, ...).

## Directive Info

## Usage

- as element: (This directive can be used as custom element, but be aware of IE restrictions).
