[Catalyst] Trouble using Catalyst::Controller::FormBuilder

[Hernan Lopes]

indeed, again:

here is a simple form example of formhandler with perl catalyst:

in your User.pm controller:

use HTML::FormHandler;

sub fields {
   return [
       display0 =3D> {
           type =3D> 'Display',
           html =3D> '<h1>Personal data</h1>',
           },
       name =3D> {
           type             =3D> 'Text',
           label            =3D> 'Name',
           required         =3D> 0,
           required_message =3D> 'required',
           css_class        =3D> 'form50',
       },
       submit =3D> {
           type      =3D> 'Submit',
           css_class =3D> 'form100 clear',
           value     =3D> 'submit',
       },
   ];
}


sub myform :Path('/myform') :Args(0) {
   my ( $self, $c ) =3D @_;
   my $form =3D
   HTML::FormHandler->new(
   field_list =3D> $self->fields);
  $c->res->body( $form->render );
}


And, start your server,  access your http://localhost:3000/myform

see more on the catalyst manual and formhandler manual
