peschkaj has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Is it possible to use the CGI module to generate multiple script tags in the <head> element of an HTML document?

My question in entirely aesthetic - I don't like having script tags wandering about my HTML.

Thanks,

    Pass -script an array reference. Something like this? I assume this does what you want it to do.

    print start_html(-script => [ 'js1', 'js2' ]);
    Hope that helps.

      Thanks, this seems to do the trick:

      print $q->start_html( -script=>[ { 'language'=>"javascript", 'type'=>"text/javascript", 'src'=>"png.js" }, { 'language'=>"javascript", 'type'=>"text/javascript", 'src'=>"mailForm.js" } ] );
        Just a little TIMTOWTDI on a Tuesday afternoon:
        print $q->start_html( -script => [ map { language => 'javascript', type => 'text/javascript', src => $_, }, qw(png.js mailForm.js) ] );

        jeffa
