We have a number of public extract/download workbenchs we'd like to build (better) webforms for. Currently the workflow I use is login to fme server, go to configure then select all and then paste the html into dreamweaver and then modify the webpage. There has to be a better way. Here are the web forms I've built:

I'd like to find a better way to do this so that if I make changes to the workbench I dont have to re dreamweaver snag the code and then manipulate it. 
Hi,

 

 

if I'm not mistaken, FME Server 2014 implements version 2 of the REST API which enables you to query FME Server about all the available workspaces and their published parameters.

 

 

Documentation here: http://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_REST/index.html#!/repositories/parameter_get_30

 

 

Based on this, you could write an application that (re-)generates your webforms based on these API calls.

Actually, this URL works better: http://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_REST/index.html#
