I have a form validator PerlResponseHandler (using Data::FormValidator) that needs to repopulate a form upon failure. Problem is, the original form is not generated by the handler, but by other pages on the site. My thinking is that I ought to be able to do a lookup_uri and pass it a filter that can repopulate the html correctly, but the online docs for filters is failing me. The lookup_uri documentation says that it takes an Apache2::Filter object, but nowhere can I find information on how to create one of these. Whatever filter I build I'll need to be able to pass into it data specific to the parent request in order to repopulate the html form correctly. How do I do this?

thanks,
- Stephen
