I like to get your advice about a simple library for web form generation
and processing. So far I tried digestive-functors and reform. Both of them
are advertised as being good in separating data from view. However, I am
interested in one-off forms, that is, form data will always be rendered in
one way. Thus I would like to save the efforts to combine data and view
after they have been carefully separated.
Formerly I have also used autolib-cgi:
http://autolat.imn.htwk-leipzig.de/haddock/autolib-cgi-1.2/
It allowed me to generate the form and fetch and validate the data in one
(monadic) go. The blaze-markup type MarkupM is a monad anyway, thus it
seems to be straight-forward to use the monadic results for the data
entered to the form.
Is there a library that supports this style of web form handling?
