I still don't like writing forms. Anyone have a system they like? I keep thinking there must be something better.
CGI::FormBuilder seems popular but not quite right in TT: http://template-toolkit.org/pipermail/templates/2002-January/002353.html Any comments on CGI::FormBuilder? My goal is to quickly generate a very basic form that is easy for others to edit. I like a plain simple HTML form with only a few TT tags that is processed by HTML::FillInForm -- seems that's the easiest format for others to edit. But I don't like generating that form in the fist place. Looking through various projects I've done many different things. For example I see things like this: <table> [% INCLUDE text_field label = "First Name" name = "first" %] [% INCLUDE text_field label = "Last Name" name = "last" %] [% INCLUDE check_box label = "Do you want spam?" name = "spam_me" %] [% INCLUDE radio_options name = 'This form is' options = [ 'Too easy', 'Too hard', 'Just right'] %] </table> And then have things like: [% BLOCK radio_options %] [% INCLUDE check_and_warn_missing_field %] <blockquote> <table border="0"><tr> [% FOR option = options %] <td> <input type="radio" name="[% name | html %]" value="[% option | html %]" />[% option | h$ </td> [% END %] </tr></table> </blockquote> [% END %] [% BLOCK check_missing %] [% IF missing.$name %] <br><font color="red">[% missing.$name %]</font><br> [% END %] [% END %] I'm wondering if the best would be to use TT generate a TT source file as plain old HTML form. Anyone doing that? So, any suggestions?
