# perl -MConfig::Any\ 9999
Config::Any version 9999 required--this is only version 0.17.

I pasted your XML into form.xml
then

# perl -MHTML::FormFu -e "print HTML::FormFu->new->load_config_file('form.xml')"
Error parsing ./form.xml: Not a HASH reference at
/usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0/Config/Any/XML.pm line 67.
 at /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0/HTML/FormFu/ObjectUtil.pm line 502


I switched to YML now but I really think XML would have been the
cleaner solution.

thank you btw, I appreciate your help on this
