This module automatically inserts data from a previous HTML form into
the HTML input and select tags. It is a subclass of HTML::Parser and
uses it to parse the HTML and insert the values into the form tags.
One useful application is after a user submits an HTML form without
filling out required field. HTML::FillInForm can be used to redisplay
the HTML form with all the form elements containing the submitted info.
Please note that this module requires HTML::Parser 3.26 or greater.
To install this module, use CPAN, for example:
cpan HTML::FillInForm
