devel/p5-Form-Sensible 0.20023 DragonFly

Form::Sensible is a different kind of form library. Form::Sensible is not just another HTML form creator, or a form validator, though it can do both. Form::Sensible, instead, focuses on what forms are: a method to relay information to and from a user interface.

Form::Sensible forms are primarily tied to the data they represent. Form::Sensible is not tied to HTML in any way. You could render Form::Sensible forms using any presentation system you like, whether that's HTML, console prompts, WxPerl or voice prompts. (* currently only an HTML renderer is provided with Form::Sensible, but work is already under way to produce others.)

Features:

• Easy form validation
• Ability to easily save created forms for future use
• Define form once, render any number of ways
• Flexible built-in form validator
• Easily extended to produce new renderers, field types and validation
• HTML renderer produces sane html that can be easily styled via CSS
• HTML renderer allows for custom templates to control all aspects of form rendering.
• HTML output not tied to any javascript library.
