Hi Carl,

I can recall the errors now. I was bambozalled by the number of
perldocs returned from CPAN for a search for FormFU. I wasn't sure
which was the right module to follow because there seems to be some
incompatiablites between them. Off the top of my head the

sub method : Local :FormConfig('users/add.yml')  does seem to work
under Catalyst-Model-FormFu but does with
Catalyst-Controller-HTML-FormFu.

I guess the question should be, "What FormFu modules should you use
with Catalyst?"

Thanx,
Dp.
