Subject: wish: comparison to Data::FormValidator
Hello, I'm interested in some extra documentation that compares this module to Data::FormValidator, which seems to be covering just the same problem space. There's a demo of it here: http://mark.stosberg.com/dfv/ Data::FormValidator includes support for validating file uploads and dates, has built-in support for Regexp::Common regular expressions, it can also untaint the data in the process in many cases. At least, I think a "SEE ALSO" link seems appropriate.
Mark, I sent you an email (to MARKSTOS@cpan.org) earlier today regarding your comments. At the very least, the next time I post a release of WWW::Form I will add your module under the SEE ALSO section of my documentaion. [MARKSTOS - Thu Jul 3 17:43:08 2003]: Show quoted text

There's now a "SEE ALSO" link to it. Using WWW::Form is no longer recommended as it is old, incomplete and deprecated. Please switch to something else. Regards, Shlomi Fish
