perl dancer user specific serverside validation

perlnov has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am creating a web application using perl dancer. I am stuck at the validation part. I have a specific validation rule for each field and if the entered value is not within the rules the text in the field should be highlighted in red. I am using data::FormValidator for the server side validation. My questions are :

Can i write user specific validation rules with Data::FormValidator if not is there any modules that i can use for this

how to display the errors as html rather than using dataDumper.

perlnov, You probably should be using Dancer::Plugin::DataFormValidator which is a plugin to Data::FormValidator. I am at work and do not have access to it, but I have done what you are trying to do myself so I know it works. Cheers - L~R	[reply]
