You dont need to use HTML::Widgets as_xml method to render your form you know. You can get each field and place them however you want, or write your own HTML for that matter. HTML::Widget doesnt know what posted to it, so you dont need it to be the HTML it would generate, although the names of the fields must match ofc. andreas _______________________________________________ List: [email protected] Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
