+=head1 NAME
+
+Catalyst::Manual::Plugins - Catalyst Plugins (and Components)
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This section lists the some of the plugins and components that are available
+to extend the runtime functionality of the Catalyst. The plugins are not
+distributed with Catalyst but should be available from CPAN.  They mostly
+required additional modules from CPAN.

+C<HTML::FillInForm> is a subclass of C<HTML::Parser> and uses it to parse the
+HTML and insert the values into the form tags.
+
+=head2 Catalyst::Plugin::FormValidator
+
+A form validator plugin that uses L<Data::FormValidator> to validate and set up
