I have problems with the following snippet (it's a template file that is meant to be used with ttree (see Template)).

[% USE DBI %]

[% DBI.connect( 'dbi:mysql:personal', 'root', '' ) %]

[% query_category = DBI.prepare('select category from link group by ca
+tegory') %]
[% query_link = DBI.prepare('select * from link where category = ?') %
+]

[% FOREACH item = query_category.execute() %]

 [% FILTER redirect("links/${item.category}.html") %]
  
  [% INCLUDE header.tt2 %]
  [% FOREACH link = query_link.execute( $item.category )  %]

  ... do something ...
  
  [% END %]
  [% INCLUDE footer.tt2 %]

 [% END %]

[% END %]

As you can see, I have two nested FOREACH instructions that cycle with different iterators. The inner cycle depends on $item.category's value. The problems is that every links/${item.category}.html page it's empty, apart for header and footer stuff. $item.category is passed correctly, and the database is not empty. I'm working with ttree 2.03 (Template Toolkit 2.00). Suggestions?
