...specifically, this is a form containing filters for requesting a list of transactions that match the filter criteria. In addition to the button to post the form there are the resulting list, a link to trigger JS to print the list, a link to trigger JS to download the list, a link to reset the filters, a pagination link, aaaand, finally, links for triggering sorting behavior in the list. All of this inside the opening and closing form tags.
