The value holders containing strings end with a special character or a special set of characters. The value holders containing a form data type incorporate a plurality of nested value holders contained within the form value holder. The form value holder comprises a form key indicating the number of value holders contained within the form value holder and a plurality of value holders nested within the form value holder.
