How would you localize 'String Theory'? Would it be possible to use tool template on form fu (that it would be easier to localise that string? Then it could be...

    • You used <c></c> tags before, don't start using pre tags now , see Markup in the Monastery
    • write small programs to answer questions like this , say 
      use YAML qw' Load ';
use HTML::FormFu;
my $f = HTML::FormFu->new;
$f->populate( Load( <<'__YAML__' ) );
---
...
__YAML__

print $f;

    • use label_loc 
          options:
        - value: 'Code1'
          label_loc: 'String Theory'

    • I feel HTML::FormFu needs to be slicker, somehow (don't ask me how ) :)
