You might want to look at the area of XForms technology:

I briefly explored Chiba ( http://chiba.sourceforge.net/ ) back in '06.
It works in all major browsers and doesn't require any client-side
plugins. It looked promising but that feature of the project was canned
due to timeline. It's free but not a drop-in wysiwyg component. Not that
you couldn't make it one with some effort. The wikipedia article
mentions plenty of other products.
