Conceptually they are fairly similar. I looked at HTML_QuickForm to begin
with, but it was unsuitable for my project for the following reasons:

1. It went a bit too far -- it was a big framework for form
input, whereas I wanted something a bit simpler; and

2. HTML_QuickForm ties you to XHTML 1.0.

My full rationale is explained at the top of my source code:
