in reply to Nice HTML::Template feature

$t->param( "hallo" => \&littletest );

That is more or less equal to: 

print "1 " . time() . "\n";
$t->param( "hallo" => "test" );

Which explains why the "1" is printed before the "2".

    Hi,<pb> please note that 1 is printed before 2 in case of: 
    $t->param( "hallo" => &littletest );

    And this is what one expects because it runs the sub before calling param.

    Or am I wrong??

      Right. How can that be one of HTML::Template's feature? When you call a sub, the returned value is used, so it reads "hallo" => "test", but just before "test" is returned, the "1" with timestamp is printed.
