Hi, I'm just curious as to why you decided to write another Form class, since Quickform seems to be able to do all the basic stuff and a whole lot more like filters, validation rules and templates. Are you planning to bring those features to HTML_Form as well?
Actually, HTML_Form existed before HTML_QuickForm and was the original PEAR class for handling forms. Adam Daniel and I needed an object oriented, easy to use form class and we decided to write QuickForm then. HTML_Form was just hidden in the old pear cvs. :-)
That leaves the question, what's going to happen to HTML_OOH_Form. Is there a real chance that there will be a HTML_OOH_Form package some day? Mike
