Hi Iain, At the time I started using BFG, the options I had didn't quite attracted me that much so I decided to roll it on my own. My main goal was to quickly create form widgets from python code using a XML factory ( template independent ). Today it's called repoze.etreeform [1] and although it doesn't have a stable release yet, we use it for all our internal apps (BFG, z3 and plone) with some decent stability. It also ships with some helper functions that will allow one to easily create fieldsets, groups and wizards. Validation is provided by a simple function that will use Formencode validators against request data. The entire library is loose coupled so nothing is connected to anything. The Form class is just a mean to put widgets together, pass values and errors to them and also render it. I also wrote some documentation [2].
Let me know if you experiment with it and run into problems, Regards, Fernando [1] http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.etreeform/trunk/ [2] http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.etreeform/trunk/repoze/etreeform/README.txt On Sat, Jun 27, 2009 at 4:47 PM, Iain Duncan<iaindun...@telus.net> wrote: > what are folks using to make forms and validation schemas with bfg?
