[dancer-users] Trapping parameters from a dynamic list of checkboxes.

[John Stoffel]

I've looked at datatables in the past, but since my search interfaces are
mostly for small collections at a a research library, it's not quite
what the end customer wants.  

Basically, they want a paged output, with the results formatted as
they like for each record.  

http://clarence.mwa.org/Carey

is my initial Dancer implementation.  Still needs work and skinning,
which reflects my comment on bootstrap and client side javascript
needs for better pagination.

I've been trying to move away from PHP backend stuff, but this is all
side projects when I get a chance, not my day to day job at all.
