I had an initial struggle with FillInForm initially, but then I
struggled finding a good alternative in the first place.
I am now quite keen on using it and have used it for several large web
and intranet sites with no problems.
The only issue I had was with checkboxes filled in from the database,
since CGI does not send back a value for unchecked checkboxes then
FillInForm would not handle them correctly so I had to develop a
work-around.
