I started off hating the forms API, I then progressed with it a little, did a client delivery, and now I can see the merit of it.

So given how sceptical I was I think I'd have to say it *is* a good thing.

But, I think it so correct to point out it does become a little more troublesome when applied to more complex situations.

As you've probably seen I had some problems/difficulties when using it in a site with a number of inline frames etc..

I would certainly like to see a little more in the way of API control of its behaviour.
