FormEncode and FunFormKit are by the same author... I think Ian considers
FormEncode to be his current recommendation for processing forms, and FFK is
old, deprecated.


I think formencode should have a method of writing html from form
definition, most like the newforms library from django. Then you can
use the schema you defined to show up your form.


I doubt that FormEncode will ever do this... it's exactly against its
philosophy... his idea is that it eats the html and figures out where the
form is, processing it accordingly... and that the human is better suited to
making the form in something like DreamWeaver, with whatever highly custom
layout is required.

FormBuild (formbuild.org) is something designed to work with FormEncode, but
is not really set up for use within WebKit... as far as I can tell.
http://formbuild.org

My own FormKit library is closely designed upon FFK:
http://dalchemy.com/opensource/formkit/
It includes lots of form/tag generation code, which I like. I expect that
the validator part of it isn't as powerful as FormEncode.
