The xml function just builds a unit formlet with raw xml. The plug function modifies the xml of a formet. It takes a function of type "xml -> xml1", but xml1 could of course also be xml.

Is there code for this anywhere? Or maybe a more generic formlet function that allows you to add arbitrary text to the HTML generated by a formlet?

I definitely need to read up on Applicative. It wasn't in Utrecht's Advanced Functional Programming course of 2006-2007 but hardly a year later it seems everyone is using it. Nice!

For example, adding a label can be done like this: <pre lang="haskell"> userFull = User <$> label "Name: " *> inputF Nothing <*> label "Password " *> passwordF Nothing <*> label "Date: " *> dateFull </pre> The *> combinator throws away the result of its argument. So label "Test" *> inputF Nothing will still have type FailingForm String. Sjoerd: you can easily add other html to the formlets. For example, adding a label can be done like this:

Certainly when it comes to complex widgets like calender widgets this becomes hairy. Layout of labels and error messages is also always tricky to get right generically. How do you solve stylability?
