IIRC, there were issues with labels on controls. We wanted no label on a button, and had to override the button render method. There were some other stuff in which the way we wanted the form to look didn't fit the way H::FH thought a form should look, resulting in overriding the rendering methods and lots of crufty code. Keep in mind, this wasn't what made us ditch it in favour of FormFu. -- Erez La perfection soit atteinte non quand il n'ya plus rien à ajouter, mais quand il n'ya plus rien à retrancher. _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
