    my $form = CGI::FormBuilder->new(... sticky => 0);

By turning off the C<sticky> option, you will still be able to access
the values, but they won't show up in the form.

=head2 I can't get "validate" to accept my regular expressions!

You're probably not specifying them within single quotes. See the
section on C<validate> above.

=head2 Can FormBuilder handle file uploads?

It sure can, and it's really easy too. Just change the C<enctype>
as an option to C<new()>:

    use CGI::FormBuilder;
    my $form = CGI::FormBuilder->new(
                    enctype => 'multipart/form-data',
                    method  => 'post',
                    fields  => [qw(filename)]
               );

        while (<$file>) {
            print F;
        }
        close F;

        print $form->confirm(header => 1);
    } else {
        print $form->render(header => 1);
    }

In fact, that's a whole file upload program right there.

=head1 REFERENCES

This really doesn't belong here, but unfortunately many people are
confused by references in Perl. Don't be - they're not that tricky.
When you take a reference, you're basically turning something into
a scalar value. Sort of. You have to do this if you want to pass
arrays intact into functions in Perl 5.

A reference is taken by preceding the variable with a backslash (\).
