The scope basically represents an html element that is contained within
the thing your looking for.
Basically lookupIdByTagId walks the DOM "inside out" by calling 
getParentNode on each parentNode starting with "scope" until beehive
maps it's internal id for the form 
with the id specified.

So if your form contained a button with an onClick handler you could do
something like:

<netui:form tagId="">
<netui:button type="button" onClick="foo (this)"/>
</netui:form>


function foo (element)
{
        lookupIdByTagId ("fooForm", element);
}

Can anybbody explain the scope used in the javascript 

var form = document.getElementById(lookupIdByTagId("form",scope));

The above is from the documentation on Beehive site

I am confused about the scope. If I need to get the form in a page, what
is the scope that is referring to?
