I'll second that one.  I use it on many different sites, some of which 
have complex requirements.  Using HTML_QuickForm will definitely make 
your life easier.

Also, having an object interface to forms is what really makes this 
package helpful, as you are free to dynamically manipulate your form 
elements before rendering.

Additional benefits are automated validation rules generation (even 
client-side javascript) and the ability to run functions on submitted 
data before the actual process starts.
