+Compiles the previously registered breadcrumbs into an series of links.
+Additionally supports a 'component', which will be displayed on the

+# &submit_row() does not require a &row_closure after it.

+# &start_pick_box() creates a bounding table with 1-pixel wide black border.
+# rows should be placed between calls to &start_pick_box() and &end_pick_box.

+# &row_title() adds a title in the left column for each segment.
+# &row_closure() closes a row with a 1-pixel wide black line.
+#
+# &role_select_row() provides a select box from which to choose 1 or more roles 
+# &course_select_row provides ways of picking groups of courses
+#    radio buttons: all, by category or by picking from a course picker pop-up
+#      note: by category option is only displayed if a domain has implemented 
+#                selection by year, semester, department, number etc.
+#
+# &status_select_row() provides a select box from which to choose 1 or more
+#  access types (current access, prior access, and future access)  
+#
+# &email_default_row() provides text boxes for default e-mail suffixes for
+#  different authentication types in a domain.
+#
+# &row_title() and &row_closure() are called internally by the &*_select_row

+# set_form_elements
+#
+# Generates javascript to set form elements to values based on
+# corresponding values for the same form elements when the page was
+# previously submitted.
+#     
+# Last submission values are read from hidden form elements in referring 
+# page which have the same name, i.e., generated by &echo_form_input(). 
+#
+# Intended to be called by onload event.
+#
+# Inputs:
+# (a) Reference to hash of echoed form elements to be set.
+#
+# In the hash, keys are the form element names, and the values are the
+# element type (selectbox, radio, checkbox or text -for textbox, textarea or
+# hidden).
+#
+# (b) Optional reference to hash of stored elements to be set.
+#
+# If the page being displayed is a page which permits modification of
+# previously stored data, e.g., the first page in a multi-page submission,
+# then if stored is supplied, form elements will be set to the last stored
+# values.  If user supplied values are also available for the same elements
+# these will replace the stored values. 
+#        
+# Output:
+#  
+# javascript function - set_form_elements() which sets form elements,
+# expects an argument: formname - the name of the form according to 
+# the DOM, e.g., document.compose
