CGI::FastTemplate is a module with a similar approach to Template::Recall. It uses regexes.	[reply]

Wow, CGI::FastTemplate is definitely push-style.. I've updated the main node. Never heard of it til now. Question is, why is it in the CGI namespace? It could be used on plain text and standalone with no web sense whatsoever. Thing is, breaking a table into 3 files as shown in the full example eliminates one major push-style benefit, the ability to statically validate and clean HTML... and another push-style benefit: the ability to edit with an HTML page-oriented tool. Interesting module nonetheless. Finally, your statement about Seamstress and div/class tags is a bit of a simplification. The more recent API calls in Seamstress can use anything that the `look_down()` method in TreeBuilder can.	[reply] [d/l]

This module works the closest that I can see to Template::Recall, except it doesn't have the ability to save the sections in a single file. It has a `define_nofile()` method, but this requires you to define the template as a string in the code file... I wondered the same thing about the namespace -- I guess they were simply focused on CGI at the time. Template::Recall can also do sections as files, but I've found that in practice, keeping sections in a single file is much more convenient. A blog among millions.	[reply] [d/l]
