Ok. Thanks Hernan and Dave. I've been using FormBuilder for years, but
will take a look at FormHandler.

indeed, again:
here is a simple form example of formhandler with perl catalyst:
in your User.pm controller:
use HTML::FormHandler;
sub fields {
return [
display0 => {
type => 'Display',
html => '<h1>Personal data</h1>',
},
name => {
type => 'Text',
label => 'Name',
required => 0,
required_message => 'required',
css_class => 'form50',
},
submit => {
type => 'Submit',
css_class => 'form100 clear',
value => 'submit',
},
];
}
sub myform :Path('/myform') :Args(0) {
my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
my $form =
HTML::FormHandler->new(
field_list => $self->fields);
$c->res->body( $form->render );
}
And, start your server, access your http://localhost:3000/myform
see more on the catalyst manual and formhandler manual

People seem to move towards HTML::FormHandler these days.
