So, you want to interpolate a result of a method call, right?
Here is one way to do it
#!perl -w
use strict;
use Number::Format;
sub HTML_SomethingBetter {
my $t = shift;
my $d = new Number::Format (-thousands_sep => ',', -decimal_point =>'
+.', -decimal_fill => 2);
return <<END;
<tr/td code>
@{[$d->format_number($t->{key})]}
</tr>
END
}
print "<-- SomethingBetter -->\n";
print HTML_SomethingBetter { key => ' 3.1415956 ' };
__END__
<-- SomethingBetter -->
<tr/td code>
3.14
</tr>
