Wojtek. What you say is exactly what has been solved time ago by fomlets in Web interfaces. There are many formlet library and almost all haskell web framework use formlets.

AFAIK, formlets at the server are very much like PHP, only with neater syntax, strong typing, and the like. Formlets tutorials teach you to put all your validation into the GUI, you really can't do much worse. But, Alberto, your client side formlets look very interesting. I printed your Monad.Reader paper, and I'm definitely going to explore your ideas. -- Kind regards, Wojtek Narczyński
