perfectly right, so a entry in HTML is e.g. created with 

        set city [get it from some where else]
        puts "<input name=city size=30 value=\"$city\">"

and a button with

        puts "<input type=submit value=\"Send\">"

Another way to port Tcl/Tk into a web application is to use the Tcl/Tk
Plugin, available for some browsers. See http://www.tcl.tk/software/plugin/
(where else? ;-)
