  A couple of guys managed to contact me via the website's form with this question... \
Let's put it right at the top.  Remove the noob "question", it doesn't seem to scare \
noobs away. ::sigh::

-    Sorry, <classname>HTML_QuickForm_Controller</classname> is not intended for PHP \
newbies. If you don't understand what classes are, if you have no prior experience \
with QuickForm, if you are a fan of copy-paste programming then this package is not \
                for you.

-    The package is indeed complex, but so are the problems it is trying to solve. \
Try to rewrite any of the enclosed multipage form examples without using such a \
package and you&apos;ll see what we mean. +      The only reason constructor of \
<classname>HTML_QuickForm_Page</classname> does not provide a means to set the \
<varname>action</varname> attribute is to make it harder to shoot oneself in the \
foot. That being said, the attribute can still be changed by \
<function>setAttribute</function> or <function>updateAttributes</function> method of \
<classname>HTML_QuickForm_Page</classname> (these are inherited from \
<classname>HTML_Common</classname>, and you should really consider learning its API). \
