Re: Template::Toolkit: better way to generate variable names?

from what i saw, the $var trick within TT only works for hash/ arrray keys, not for strings.

Did you try it? The examples in the docs for the SET directive would seem to imply that you're wrong :)

[% useName = "floorplan_name$s" %]

i think that's the only combination i didn't try. the last one i tried was in the cgi.textfield method. something like: `[% mycgi.textfield( '-name' => "floorplan_name${s}" ... ) %]` [download] and that gave me a template exception.	[reply] [d/l]
