- 3. Infrae ! Download ! Formulator Formulator Formulator Formulator is an extensible framework that eases the creation and validation of web forms. HISTORY for the latest release. Important links: Subscribe to the Formulator mailing list, for general discussions and questions on Formulator usage. If you're interested in the further development of Formulator, subscribe to the Formulator-dev list Formulator SourceForge project page Formulator SVN web Check out Formulator from SVN like this: svn co https://infrae.com/svn/Formulator/trunk Formulator Important hint: Don't ever use field_<fieldname>; anything prefixed with field_ in REQUEST is a Formulator implementation detail. Instead, don't forget to validate the form, for instance using validate_all_to_request(). See the Formulator API help and Howto for more information. Forgetting to validate the form is the most frequently made Formulator mistake that I've encountered.
