I don't necessarily dispute that. I didn't chastise the OP for using a
pure HTML form - I simply pointed out that this was not the usual
practice of Perl CGI scripts (as documented in Stein's perldocs and
book). But, IMHO, if you are using CGI.pm for the form processing (this
is NOT a troll for PG), it seems natural to use CGI.pm for the form
presentation as well. Personally, though, I generate all my forms with
a CGI.pm-based script using HTML::Template (I write a program that
generates my templates - but I'm weird).
