    This template is any given XHtml that contains three nodes acting as placeholders such as:

    
    <lift:field_label name="firstName"/> - the label for firstName field will be rendered here
    <lift:field name="firstName"/> - the firstName field will be rendered here (typically an input field)
    <lift:field_msg name="firstName"/> - the  will be rendered here having the id given by
                                                uniqueFieldId of the firstName field.

    Having:
    
    class MyRecord extends Record[MyRecord] {
    
    	def meta = MyRecordMeta
