Attached is version 3.02 of FormBuilder that I intend to put on CPAN. Please take a look as it's the last release I intend to do for a few months. In particular, read the Changes file for a ton of new features. Thanks, Nate www.formbuilder.org
Something I just noticed with this version is that validated but not
required fields are erroniously triggering the Javascript validation
routines, and popping up an "invalid fields" alert.
Here is a minimal script that demonstrates this problem:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
# pops up an "alert" dialog even if
# the email field is blank
use CGI;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
use CGI::FormBuilder;
my $q = CGI->new;
my $form = CGI::FormBuilder->new(
fields => [qw(email)],
params => $q,
);
$form->field(name => 'email', required => 0, validate => 'EMAIL');
unless ($form->submitted && $form->validate) {
print $q->header;
print $form->render;
} else {
print $q->header('text/plain');
print "Success!"
}

Thanks Peter, I'll check that out. At first glance it appears to be per-browser (some like the new JS code and others don't).

Sounds reasonable to me. -Nate
