PHP Language - multiple form in a page class

multiple form in a page class

I am looking for a php class handling multiple forms within the same
page.

The class should be self contained : it should handle data
verification and error handling, while allowing the form to be
smoothly integrated within a page layout design.

I looked at hundreds of form classes and frameworks on the web, but
couldn't find any that would fit all of these simple requirements.

Thanks for any potential help or hints.

simply try the good old one:
HTML_QuickForm & HTML_QuickFormController
it is an addon for PEAR

You can find this @ http://pear.php.net

Are you certain about that ? May I point out that I am definitely not
looking for multipage forms, the kind used to make wizards or
assistants.

I am looking for a php class and page layout framework allowing smooth
object oriented insertion of several, possibly different, forms within
the same page.

All of that while retaining the very desirable properties of a great
php class :
- self contained
- auto validation
- contextual error messages
- build in input types
- etc.

Does such a framework exists somewhere ? I did give a second look to
HTML_QuickForm, but it does not seem to fit my requirements, as I do
not see any mechanism to directly instantiate the correct form class
out of several in the same page, during the validation process.
HTML_QuickFormController also looks a lot like a _multipage_ wizard,
not a multiform page layout.
