I see that there are a number of form validation libraries that purport

have been relatively happy with it.
I need something for my new Catalyst app. I have already created my
forms in my TT templates, but I need validation for most of the regular
stuff, including zip codes, states, credit card info, etc.
You guys got any recommendations?
Thanks.

I have just started to look at Data::FormValidator:
"Data::FormValidator lets you define profiles which declare the required
and optional fields and any constraints they might have."
You can use the built-in constraints, use existing CPAN modules (e.g.,
Email::Valid), and add your own custom constraints - maybe incorporating
MooseX::Types and MooseX::Types::Structured, as suggested by Darren Duncan.
It doesn't generate form HTML for you, but I prefer to manually create
this anyway.

Mike
